This bill keeps certain federal lands in Alaska, New Mexico, and California reserved for military training for 25 more years. It pushes the end dates to November 6, 2051 for Fort Greely and Fort Wainwright (AK) and McGregor Range at Fort Bliss (NM), and to December 31, 2051 for Fort Irwin (CA). It also fixes the official land descriptions by updating the stated land area numbers for McGregor Range and Fort Irwin .

In everyday terms, this means these areas stay set aside for military use, not open for other development or general public use, for the next quarter century. The changes also clarify exactly which acres are covered, which helps avoid confusion for nearby communities and land managers.
