Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

This bill amends the Federal Power Act to prohibit the use of federal funds for exercising eminent domain to acquire land for electric transmission facilities and to strengthen state authority over the siting of such facilities. It eliminates the federal government's ability to use eminent domain for transmission projects and requires the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to respect state objections to transmission facility permits. The bill effectively transfers control over interstate electric transmission siting from federal to state authorities.
