Michigan Republican Candice Miller introduced the bill this week.

Miller says congressional action is needed because environmentalists' lawsuits repeatedly have blocked regulators from keeping wolf numbers under control.

The Obama administration announced plans last week to drop wolves in the Great Lakes and Northern Rockies from the endangered list.
