This is a resolution introduced in the House of Representatives. It aims to overturn a specific rule recently issued by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Why it matters: This is a procedural move used by Congress to block agency rules they disagree with. Its practical impact depends on whether the House successfully overturns the reclassification, which would force industrial facilities back under stricter “major source” regulatory requirements.
Who it affects
- Industrial facilities that were subject to the new classification change
