This bill would make the federal government remove the gray wolf from the endangered species list by restarting a prior rule that did the same thing in 2020. It tells the Interior Department to put that rule back in place within 60 days after the bill becomes law. It also blocks courts from reviewing that action. The bill’s short title is the Pet and Livestock Protection Act of 2025.

In practice, this would shift wolf management from the federal government to the states, similar to the 2020 rule it reinstates. People could not sue to stop or overturn the reissued rule in court.

Key points

• Who is affected: Ranchers, farmers, hunters, outdoor recreation users, and state wildlife agencies.
• What changes: Gray wolves would be removed from federal endangered species protections by reissuing the November 3, 2020 rule; courts could not review that reissue.
• When: Within 60 days after the bill becomes law.
