Bill Summary
Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Department of Energy relating to "Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Commercial Refrigerators, Freezers, and Refrigerator-Freezers".
AI Summary
This bill uses the Congressional Review Act (CRA), which allows Congress to review and potentially overturn recently issued federal regulations, to disapprove a specific rule issued by the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) at the Department of Energy. The rule in question relates to energy conservation standards for commercial refrigerators, freezers, and refrigerator-freezers, which were published in the Federal Register on January 21, 2025. By passing this resolution, Congress would effectively nullify the EERE's proposed energy efficiency standards for these commercial appliances, meaning the rule would have no legal force or effect. The bill represents a legislative mechanism for Congress to exercise oversight and potentially block regulatory actions they believe are inappropriate, overreaching, or not in the best interest of the nation.
