H. Res. 122 · Passed House · Congress
Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 77) to amend chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, to provide for en bloc consideration in resolutions of disapproval for "midnight rules", and for other purposes.
Sponsor: Michelle Fischbach (R-MN)
What it does
- Establish a procedure for en bloc (bundled) consideration of Congressional disapproval resolutions targeting multiple 'midnight rules' simultaneously instead of voting on each rule separately.
- Define 'midnight rules' as regulations finalized in the final days of a Presidential administration, subject to the disapproval process under the Congressional Review Act.
- Allow Congress to vote on groups of disapproval resolutions together, streamlining the legislative process for challenging multiple late-term rules at once.
