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 "Extension of Deadlines in Standards of Performance for New, Reconstructed, and Modified Sources and Emissions Guidelines for Existing Sources: Oil and Natural Gas Sector Climate Review Final Rule".
AI Summary
This joint resolution seeks to block a specific Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rule concerning emissions standards for the oil and natural gas sector under the Congressional Review Act (CRA). Specifically, the resolution disapproves the EPA's rule that extends deadlines for performance standards and emissions guidelines for new, reconstructed, and modified sources in the oil and natural gas industry. If passed, the resolution would effectively nullify the EPA's rule, preventing it from having any legal force or effect. The rule in question, published in the Federal Register on July 31, 2025, relates to climate review and emissions standards for the oil and natural gas sector. By using the Congressional Review Act, Congress would be exercising its legislative power to overturn a federal agency's regulatory action, which is a mechanism that allows Congress to review and potentially invalidate recently issued federal regulations.
