Congress Overturns 23 Agency Rules Under Review Act
Original: Congress Overturns 23 Agency Rules Under Congressional Review Act
Congress has overturned 23 federal agency rules using the Congressional Review Act, a law that allows lawmakers to void recently issued regulations with a simple majority vote. The move rolls back regulations across multiple agencies, and it is drawing attention as an unusually large batch of disapprovals, highlighting ongoing tensions between lawmakers and the federal bureaucracy over regulatory power.
Why now: A large-scale use of the Congressional Review Act to strike down agency rules is rare and politically significant.
