Bill Summary

Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Rubber Tire Manufacturing".

AI Summary

This resolution is a congressional disapproval measure targeting a specific Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rule concerning emission standards for hazardous air pollutants in rubber tire manufacturing. Specifically, the resolution seeks to nullify the EPA's rule published on November 29, 2024, which established national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants in the rubber tire manufacturing industry. By invoking Chapter 8 of Title 5 of the United States Code, the resolution would effectively invalidate the EPA rule, preventing it from being implemented or enforced. This type of resolution is a mechanism used by Congress to challenge and potentially block regulatory actions by federal agencies, allowing legislators to exercise oversight and potentially stop regulations they believe are inappropriate, overly burdensome, or not in the national interest. The resolution, if passed, would mean that the EPA's proposed emission standards for the rubber tire manufacturing sector would be completely voided and would have no legal standing.
