The Trump administration announced it is rescinding a rule under the Endangered Species Act that has been in place for decades. Interior Secretary Rick Burgum said the rule expanded federal authority to restrict energy production, infrastructure projects, and private land use. The administration did not specify when the rescission would take effect or provide details on which replacement rule, if any, would be proposed.
