Requires federal government to sell land if it buys too much in a state.
This bill would stop the federal government from owning more land in any state than it sells in a given year. If federal agencies like the Department of the Interior or Agriculture acquire more land than they dispose of, the President would have to give land back to that state. This would affect how federal land is managed across the country.
Currently, the federal government can acquire land, water, or other interests without a general rule requiring it to sell an equal amount in a state. If this bill becomes law, the federal government would be prohibited from acquiring more land than it disposes of in any state during a budget year. It would also be forced to convey land back to states if this limit is exceeded.
