About This Bill
Committee
Latest Action · May 23, 2024
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions.
This joint resolution would reject a nondiscrimination rule issued by the Department of Health and Human Services in May 2024 that applies to health programs and activities. If approved by Congress, the rule would be nullified and would no longer be enforceable. The resolution was introduced by Republican senators and uses a congressional disapproval process that allows lawmakers to overturn federal regulations. The specific details about what protections the rule provides or removes are not included in this legislative text, which only indicates Congress's intent to reject it entirely. No funding or specific timeline is mentioned in the resolution itself.
