## Summary

**Binds the Interior Secretary to 180-day deadlines to review and approve State wildlife conservation and restoration plans.** The bill would create conditional program authorization when States submit comprehensive plans and require reporting to Congress if approvals lag. - States: Submitting a comprehensive plan would trigger conditional authorization of their wildlife conservation and restoration program and cause amounts to be set aside as described in the law. - Interior Department: The Secretary must work with States to build a review process that completes final approval within 180 days. If approval misses that deadline, the Secretary must report status and reasons to leaders of the House Natural Resources Committee and the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee by June 1 of the following year. - Wildlife programs and process: The bill shortens and formalizes the review window, makes timely review a Congressional priority, and aims to speed approval of State programs. It does not itself appropriate new funds and relies on existing Pittman-Robertson program mechanics.
