Plain-English Summary
This resolution would reject a federal wildlife management plan that allows the killing of barred owls in Washington, Oregon, and California as a way to protect the threatened northern spotted owl. The measure failed in the Senate, meaning the Fish and Wildlife Service's owl management strategy will remain in effect. Environmental groups and wildlife managers have disagreed over whether killing barred owls is the right approach to save the spotted owl population.
