BLM plans decide where mining, drilling, grazing, and conservation happen on public lands. This cause focuses on earlier, clearer public access to the data and draft decisions that shape those plans. Winning means Congress includes 2026 bill language that requires BLM to disclose key environmental and cultural analyses before it issues resource-management plans.

A clearer window into how BLM plans are made
Why this matters now
BLM manages about 245 million acres of public land. When land-use plans are hard to find, hard to understand, or shared late, local knowledge shows up too late to matter.
More transparency can help communities, tribes, and land users see what is being proposed and respond early. It can also reduce suspicion that decisions are being made for insiders instead of the public interest.
What's blocking progress
BLM faces internal resistance, tight resources, and real legal limits after the 2017 repeal of Planning 2.0 under the Congressional Review Act. Some industry groups and allied officials may also oppose changes that increase scrutiny or slow approvals.
