Summary of Bill SJRES 74

Bill 118 SJRes 74 is a joint resolution that aims to disapprove of a rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regarding "Greenhouse Gas Emissions Standards for Heavy-Duty Vehicles-Phase 3." The rule in question sets standards for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from heavy-duty vehicles, such as trucks and buses.

If passed, this resolution would essentially nullify the EPA's rule and prevent it from being implemented. Supporters of the resolution argue that the rule would place undue burdens on the automotive industry and could lead to job losses. They also believe that the EPA overstepped its authority in issuing the rule.

Opponents of the resolution, on the other hand, argue that the rule is necessary to combat climate change and reduce air pollution. They believe that the EPA's standards are achievable and would have significant environmental benefits. Overall, the passage of Bill 118 SJRes 74 would have significant implications for the regulation of greenhouse gas emissions from heavy-duty vehicles in the United States. It is currently being debated in Congress, and its outcome remains uncertain.
