American Land Sovereignty Protection Act

The American Land Sovereignty Protection Act is a proposed U.S. law aimed at preventing the federal government from designating new national monuments or protected areas without state or local consent. Its supporters argue that it helps safeguard state rights and property ownership. By restricting federal authority over land designations, the act seeks to promote local control and ensure that decisions about land use consider the interests of local communities. The legislation reflects ongoing debates about federal versus state authority in managing land resources.
