In plain language

The bill would create a new government agency to manage the Sierra Madre mountains as a single ecosystem, set a 25‑year science‑based plan, require big projects to get a special certificate, and make companies that rely on the range’s water, flood control, or other services buy verified “nature credits” to fund protection and restoration.
