Introduced in House Feb 11, 2025

This bill prohibits the Big Cypress National Preserve in Florida from being designated as wilderness or as a component of the National Wilderness Preservation System. The National Park Service currently manages Big Cypress National Preserve, which is a freshwater swamp ecosystem of 729,000 acres.

In contrast, natural preserves typically allow some development activities, such as hunting or oil and gas exploration.
