AI-generated summary, report an errorThis resolution states the view of the House of Representatives that the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, which covers nearly 70,000 acres in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, should keep its current designation as a national recreation area rather than be redesignated as a national park and preserve. It says Congress should continue to support this and other national recreation areas and to work with nearby communities. It also states that no funds should be used to support redesignating the area as a national park and preserve. As a resolution, it expresses an opinion and does not change law.
