Publicly opposing the rollback; pressuring for legal and political resistance
BLM's rollback of the 2024 NPR-A protections isn't new news—but today is when it becomes real. As of December 17, 2025, the rescission is officially in effect, wiping out the Biden-era rule that tried to hardwire stronger guardrails into how the Western Arctic gets developed.
Opposing proposed rule
For 50 years, states have held veto power over pipelines, dams, and power plants that cross their waterways. Now EPA wants to take it back.
