This joint resolution seeks to overturn an Environmental Protection Agency rule that allows California to set its own pollution control standards for small off-road engines, such as lawn mowers and leaf blowers. Under the Congressional Review Act, Congress can disapprove certain federal regulations within a specified timeframe, and if this resolution passes, the EPA rule would be nullified and have no legal effect. The rule, published in the Federal Register on January 6, 2025, relates to California's authority to impose stricter emissions standards than federal requirements on nonroad engines. The resolution was introduced by a bipartisan group of senators and referred to the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works. If approved by both chambers and signed by the President, this action would prevent California from enforcing its own small off-road engine pollution standards.
