The bill, which passed in the U.S. House of Representatives by a vote of 210-205, reduces and reprioritizes federal spending while promoting American energy independence, strengthening U.S. national security, and rolling back burdensome regulations that harm Kansans. Rep. Mann released the following statement after the vote.\n\n\u201cI have continuously urged Congress to pass funding bills that reduce our federal spending while putting dollars in places where taxpayers can see a higher return on them.\u201d said Rep. Mann. \u201cThis legislation unleashes American energy production while rolling back burdensome regulations like the Biden-Harris Administration\u2019s Lesser Prairie-Chicken rule that ignores science and handcuffs hardworking Kansans. It also includes funding for improvements and infrastructure repairs at tribal colleges like Haskell Indian Nations University that have long been overlooked by the federal government. This bill is a win for the Big First, and I am proud to support its passage.\u201d\n\nThe Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2025:\n\nResumes quarterly onshore oil and gas lease sales\n\nProhibits the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) from imposing the methane fee on oil and gas producers\n\nRolls back regulations on chemical and pesticide manufacturers that threaten American competitiveness\n\nLimits abuse of the Endangered Species Act\n\nThe Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2025 is the fifth appropriations package passed in the U.S. House of Representatives for fiscal year 2025.
