This joint resolution, introduced in the Senate by Senator Sheldon Whitehouse on October 1, 2025, says Congress disapproves an Environmental Protection Agency rule titled "Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration Units: Temporary-Use Incinerators and Air Curtain Incinerators Used in Disaster Recovery." The rule was published at 90 Fed. Reg. 41508 (August 26, 2025). The resolution states that the rule "shall have no force or effect." It was read twice and referred to the Committee on Environment and Public Works.
If this resolution is enacted, the named EPA rule would be nullified and would not take effect. The resolution is currently in committee. No publicly available information about specific, direct effects on individuals, businesses, or local programs is included in the bill text or metadata.
