Plain-Language Summary

AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.

A concurrent resolution is a formal statement by the legislature — it doesn't change law but puts the state on record about an issue. This resolution declares that the Utah Legislature and Governor strongly support keeping Utah's public lands — including national parks like Zion and Arches, national forests, wilderness areas, and national monuments — under federal management, preserved for all Americans and future generations. It acknowledges that federal laws provide effective protection for these lands and that ongoing conflict with the federal government over public lands management creates instability that harms Utahns' and visitors' ability to access and enjoy them.
