Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Office of the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services relating to "Policy on Adhering to the Text of the Administrative Procedure Act".
H.J.Res. 125 is a disapproval resolution that seeks to overturn a Department of Health and Human Services policy issued on March 3, 2025, titled "Policy on Adhering to the Text of the Administrative Procedure Act." The Government Accountability Office determined this policy qualifies as a formal rule subject to congressional review under federal law. If passed, this resolution would eliminate the HHS policy and prevent it from taking effect. The bill affects how the HHS Department implements rules and regulations related to administrative procedures, potentially impacting healthcare policy and regulatory enforcement across the agency. There is no specific funding mentioned in this resolution, as it is purely a disapproval measure rather than an appropriations bill.
