Summary of Bill SJRES 75

Bill 118 SJRes 75 is a joint resolution in the US Congress that aims to disapprove of a rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regarding Multi-Pollutant Emissions Standards for Model Years 2027 and Later Light-Duty and Medium-Duty Vehicles. The resolution falls under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, which allows Congress to review and potentially overturn regulations put forth by federal agencies.

The EPA's rule in question sets emissions standards for light-duty and medium-duty vehicles manufactured in 2027 and beyond, with the goal of reducing harmful pollutants released into the environment. However, some members of Congress believe that the rule may be overly burdensome for manufacturers and could have negative economic impacts.

If passed, Bill 118 SJRes 75 would effectively nullify the EPA's rule and prevent it from being implemented. This resolution is part of the ongoing debate over environmental regulations and their impact on industry and the economy. It will be up to Congress to weigh the potential benefits of reducing emissions against the concerns raised about the rule's potential consequences.
