The Trust the Science Act directs the Interior Department to officially restore the gray wolf to non‑protected status under the Endangered Species Act by reissuing an existing 2020 rule. It also blocks any legal challenges to that reissuance, affecting the wolf’s federal protection and related wildlife management policies.

Key Provisions

  • The Secretary of the Interior must reissue the 2020 final rule that removes the gray wolf (Canis lupus) from the Endangered Species Act’s list of endangered and threatened wildlife, and must do so within 60 days of the bill becoming law.
  • The reissued rule cannot be challenged in court; it is exempt from judicial review.
