Bill Analysis
Bill Summary: HRES 354 (119th Congress)
HRES 354 is a resolution that facilitates the consideration of multiple joint resolutions aimed at congressional disapproval of specific regulatory actions taken by federal agencies, primarily concerning environmental and wildlife management. The bill addresses four distinct joint resolutions (H.J. Res. 60, H.J. Res. 78, H.J. Res. 87, H.J. Res. 88, and H.J. Res. 89), each invoking the Congressional Review Act (CRA) under Chapter 8 of Title 5 of the United States Code.
Regulatory Actions Targeted:
- H.J. Res. 60: Disapproves a rule from the National Park Service regarding motor vehicle use in the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area.
- H.J. Res. 78: Disapproves a rule from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service concerning the endangered status of the Longfin Smelt in the San Francisco Bay-Delta.
- H.J. Res. 87, H.J. Res. 88, H.J. Res. 89: All disapprove various rules from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) related to California’s motor vehicle and engine pollution control standards, including provisions for heavy-duty vehicles, zero-emission technologies, and emissions regulations.
Funding/Authorities: The resolutions do not allocate funding but utilize the CRA to challenge existing regulations, thus seeking to revoke the authority of the respective agencies to enforce these rules.
Agencies Affected: The National Park Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Environmental Protection Agency are directly impacted by this resolution.
Beneficiaries/Regulated Parties: The primary beneficiaries include automotive manufacturers and industries affected by stringent environmental regulations, while the regulations themselves aim to protect wildlife and public health.
Key Timelines: The latest action on HRES 354 indicates it has been amended pursuant to H.Res. 707, although specific dates for further consideration or voting are not provided in the summary.
Overall, HRES 354 serves as a legislative mechanism for Congress to exert oversight and potentially overturn specific environmental regulations established by federal agencies.
