Bill > SJRes64

This Joint Resolution expresses Congress's disapproval of a rule created by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), an independent government agency responsible for regulating interstate and international communications by radio, television, wire, satellite, and cable. The rule in question, published in the Federal Register (a daily journal of the U.S. government) on January 22, 2024, was intended to prevent and eliminate digital discrimination, likely meaning unequal access to internet services or related technologies, as part of the broader Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. By passing this resolution under Chapter 8 of Title 5 of the U.S. Code, which outlines the Congressional Review Act, Congress is effectively canceling this specific FCC rule, preventing it from having any legal power or impact.
