This joint resolution seeks to block an Environmental Protection Agency rule that sets new greenhouse gas emission standards for coal and natural gas power plants. The EPA rule, finalized in May 2024, establishes stricter emissions limits for new power plants and existing ones, while repealing a less stringent previous rule. If passed, this resolution would invalidate the EPA rule under a Congressional Review Act procedure that allows Congress to disapprove federal regulations. The resolution was introduced by a group of Republican senators and affects electric utilities and power generation companies that would otherwise need to comply with the new emission standards. There is no specific funding involved, but the measure targets a rule that was already finalized and would take effect unless Congress acts to block it.
