Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Council on Environmental Quality relating to "National Environmental Policy Act Implementing Regulations Revisions Phase 2".

Bill 118 hjres 168, also known as the "National Environmental Policy Act Implementing Regulations Revisions Phase 2 Disapproval Resolution," is a piece of legislation that seeks to disapprove of a rule submitted by the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) regarding revisions to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Implementing Regulations.

The rule in question, titled "National Environmental Policy Act Implementing Regulations Revisions Phase 2," is aimed at making changes to the regulations that govern how federal agencies assess the environmental impacts of their actions. The CEQ's proposed revisions include streamlining the NEPA process, reducing the time and resources required for environmental reviews, and providing more flexibility to agencies in complying with NEPA requirements.

However, critics of the rule argue that these revisions could weaken environmental protections, limit public input in decision-making processes, and undermine the integrity of the NEPA process. They believe that the changes could lead to increased environmental degradation, reduced transparency, and diminished accountability in federal decision-making. In response to these concerns, Bill 118 hjres 168 seeks to express congressional disapproval of the CEQ's rule under Chapter 8 of Title 5 of the United States Code. If passed, the resolution would effectively nullify the rule and prevent its implementation, preserving the current NEPA regulations and ensuring that environmental considerations remain a priority in federal decision-making processes. Overall, Bill 118 hjres 168 represents a bipartisan effort to uphold the principles of environmental protection and public participation in government decision-making, by rejecting proposed revisions to the NEPA Implementing Regulations that are seen as potentially harmful to the environment and public welfare.
