Introduced

In Committee

Passed One Chamber

Congress would speed up votes to reject rules on parks, wildlife, and car emissions.

This resolution would make it faster for the House of Representatives to vote on five specific bills. These bills aim to cancel rules made by federal agencies. The rules are about things like motor vehicles in national parks, endangered fish, and California's vehicle pollution standards. This would happen by changing how these specific bills are debated and voted on.

What Would Change

Today, bills to disapprove agency rules would follow standard House procedures. This allows for more debate and potential procedural challenges. If this resolution passes, five specific bills would be fast-tracked. These bills aim to cancel rules from the National Park Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and Environmental Protection Agency. They would move forward with waived objections and limited debate.

Key Provisions

Would allow the House to immediately consider bills to cancel a National Park Service rule on motor vehicles in Glen Canyon.
Would allow the House to immediately consider a bill to cancel a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service rule on the endangered Longfin Smelt.
Would allow the House to immediately consider three bills to cancel Environmental Protection Agency rules on California's vehicle pollution standards.
Would remove all procedural objections that could stop these five bills from being considered or voted on.
Would limit debate on each of these five bills to one hour before a final vote.
