What’s happening with Wildlife Corridors and Habitat Connectivity Conservation Act of 2026?
The Wildlife Corridors and Habitat Connectivity Conservation Act of 2026, known as H.R. 8438, has been sitting in four House committees since April 21, 2026. The House committees must act next by holding a vote to move the bill forward, but most bills fail to receive this step and never reach the full House floor. This lack of committee action is the standard way most legislation ends in the federal process.
