Bill Summary
A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "California State Motor Vehicle and Engine Pollution Control Standards; Heavy-Duty Vehicle and Engine Emission Warranty and Maintenance Provisions; Advanced Clean Trucks; Zero Emission Airport Shuttle; Zero-Emission Power Train Certification; Waiver of Preemption; Notice of Decision".
AI Summary
This joint resolution disapproves a specific rule issued by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) related to California's motor vehicle and engine pollution control standards. The rule in question, published in the Federal Register on April 6, 2023, covers several environmental and emissions-related provisions, including standards for heavy-duty vehicles, advanced clean trucks, zero-emission airport shuttles, and power train certification. By passing this resolution under the Congressional Review Act (Chapter 8 of Title 5, United States Code), Congress is effectively nullifying the EPA's rule, which means the regulation will have no legal force or effect. This type of congressional action allows legislators to review and potentially overturn federal regulations within a certain timeframe after they are implemented, providing a check on executive branch rulemaking power.
