To direct the Secretary of Agriculture and the Secretary of the Interior to enter into a memorandum of understanding or other interagency agreement, to carry out, and coordinate on, activities to prevent, control, and eradicate New World screwworm in wildlife and non-livestock species of animals on certain Federal lands, and for other purposes.

H.R. 7466 would direct the Secretary of Agriculture and Secretary of the Interior to develop an interagency agreement to coordinate activities aimed at preventing, controlling, and eradicating New World screwworm in wildlife and non-livestock animals on certain federal lands. The New World screwworm is a parasitic pest that affects animals, and this bill would establish formal coordination between two federal agencies to address the problem on public lands they manage. If enacted, the bill could lead to more integrated pest management efforts across federal properties, potentially protecting wildlife populations from this harmful species. The bill is currently in the early stages of the legislative process, having been introduced in February 2026 and referred to committee for consideration.
