If this bill were to become law, it would introduce a new concurrent memorial urging the United States Congress to enact legislation that would exempt Arizona from the establishment of national lands under the Antiquities Act of 1906 without explicit authorization from Congress. This insertion aims to address concerns regarding the misuse of the Antiquities Act, which has been perceived as allowing presidents to designate large parcels of land as national monuments without sufficient oversight.

The current statutes would remain unchanged, but the new language would formally express Arizona's request for exemption, aligning it with similar exemptions previously granted to other states, such as Wyoming. This change reflects a growing sentiment in Arizona regarding federal land management and the desire for more local control over land use decisions.
