President Joe Biden on Tuesday vetoed a congressional resolution blocking environmental protections for the lesser prairie chicken in Kansas and four other states.

Biden vetoed the resolution backed by the state's Republican congressional delegation including U.S. Reps. Tracey Mann, Ron Estes and Jake LaTurner as well as U.S. Sens. Roger Marshall and Jerry Moran.

In his veto message, Biden said the resolution would overturn "science-based rulemaking" that follows the law and would undercut the Endangered Species . . .
