About This Bill
Committee
Latest Action · July 18, 2024
Referred to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, and in addition to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
This joint resolution would reject a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration rule that requires automatic emergency braking systems in new light vehicles, which was published in May 2024. The measure uses the Congressional Review Act, a process that allows Congress to overturn federal agency regulations with a simple majority vote. If passed, the automatic emergency braking safety rule would be cancelled and have no legal effect. The resolution affects automakers and vehicle purchasers, as manufacturers would no longer be required to install this crash-prevention technology in new cars and light trucks. No specific funding is attached to this measure, as it is purely a regulatory disapproval action with no implementation timeline needed if enacted.
