The House Committee on Energy and Natural Resources has approved a version of the Chiricahua National Park Act. This version includes an amendment that replaces the original text with a new set of instructions for creating the park.
Why it matters: This is an administrative step toward creating a new national park; the bill must still pass both chambers of Congress and be signed by the President before any changes to the land occur.
