Urging Congress to direct the Bureau of Land Management to affirm the provisions of the Red River Boundary Compact and to acknowledge that the vegetation line on the south bank of the Red River forms the boundary between Oklahoma and Texas.

Bill Analysis

This resolution would urge the US Congress to direct the Bureau of Land Management to affirm that the vegetation line on the south bank of the Red River is the boundary between Oklahoma and Texas. 

Vote Recommendation Notes

This bill furthers our limited government and property rights principles by urging Congress to direct the Bureau of Land Management to affirm the boundary between Texas and Oklahoma in the Red River Boundary Compact, so that Texans who own private property may retain their rights to their own property around the boundary.
