Bill Summary

Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services relating to "Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act; Marketplace Integrity and Affordability".

AI Summary

This joint resolution is a formal congressional action aimed at nullifying a specific rule issued by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) related to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA or "Obamacare"), specifically concerning Marketplace Integrity and Affordability. The resolution, using procedures outlined in Chapter 8 of Title 5 of the United States Code (which governs congressional review of federal regulations), declares that the specific CMS rule published in the Federal Register on June 25, 2025, will be deemed to have no legal standing or enforcement power. By passing this resolution, Congress is exercising its legislative oversight authority to reject a federal regulation, effectively preventing the rule from being implemented or enforced. This type of resolution is a mechanism that allows Congress to review and potentially overturn administrative rules that lawmakers believe exceed the agency's regulatory authority or are contrary to congressional intent.
