Washington, DC – Congresswoman Harriet Hageman introduced the Combating Obstruction Against Leasing (COAL) Act to end the Biden Administration’s attempt to end coal mining in America. The bill requires the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to promptly process coal lease applications, upholding federal obligations under the Mineral Leasing Act. Representatives Dan Meuser (PA-09) and Carol Miller (WV-01), fellow co-chairs of the Congressional Coal Caucus, cosponsored the bill as well.

Washington, DC – Representative Harriet Hageman condemned the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) for today’s arbitrary decision to refuse to delist the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) and Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem (NCDE) grizzly bear populations.

Washington, DC – Today,Congresswoman Harriet Hageman introduced two pieces of legislation to halt the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) Buffalo and Rock Springs Resource Management Plans (RMPs).

Washington, DC – Today, Congress certified Donald J. Trump as President and JD Vance as Vice President of the United States, fulfilling the clear mandate from nearly 80 million Americans who placed their trust in their leadership.

Washington, DC – On the opening day of the 119th Congress, Rep. Hageman introduced her first bill of the new session, the First Amendment Accountability Act, the next step in her fight against the weaponization of the federal government against the American people. This bill would empower Americans to sue federal employees who violate their First Amendment rights.
A new law, the Corporate Transparency Act, would be about to crush small-business owners, invade their privacy and violate their constitutional rights, had it been allowed to take effect as intended on New Year’s Day. It’s a bad law that was smuggled into an unrelated defense bill in 2020 under the cover of Covid-19. Although a federal court has enjoined its enforcement, Congress should take no chances and repeal it immediately.
