April 26, 2024 - MRF Flash Update: Congressional Resolution On EPA
MRF Flash Release
Congressional Joint Resolution On EPA
Friday morning, Congressman Andrew Clyde of Georgia and 30 cosponsors introduced a Congressional Review Act (CRA) joint resolution of disapproval to overturn the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) tailpipe emissions rule.
<span data-preserver-spaces="true">The joint resolution aims to overturn the EPA’s new emission standards, announced in March, that would compel over half of all new vehicles sold to be electric by 2032.
<span data-preserver-spaces="true">This CRA marks another tactic lawmakers <span data-preserver-spaces="true">are using<span data-preserver-spaces="true"> to push back against the EPA’s recent rules and protect the internal combustion engine. The CRA is a tool Congress can use to overturn specific federal agency actions. If a CRA joint resolution of disapproval is approved by both houses of Congress and signed by the President or if Congress successfully overrides a presidential veto, the rule at issue cannot go into effect or continue in effect.
<span data-preserver-spaces="true">With Congress in recess and the bill freshly introduced, a bill number has yet to be assigned. Keep your eyes open for a coming “Call-to-Action” to help you contact your lawmaker regarding this joint resolution.
