Bill Summary
Disapproving a rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "Carbon Pollution Emission Guidelines for Existing Stationary Sources: Electric Utility Generating Units". Nullifies the Environmental Protection Agency's rule published on October 23, 2015, that requires states to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from existing fossil fuel-fired electric generating units (EGUs). (Those EGUs convert fossil fuel energy to electric energy.)
AI Summary
This Joint Resolution disapproves a rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) concerning "Carbon Pollution Emission Guidelines for Existing Stationary Sources: Electric Utility Generating Units," which are facilities that convert fossil fuel energy into electricity. By disapproving this rule, Congress nullifies the EPA's regulation published on October 23, 2015, that mandated states to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from these existing fossil fuel-fired electric generating units, effectively preventing the rule from having any legal effect.
