Enact the Midnight Rules Relief Act to undo late regulations in bulk
What the document says“Congress and the President should enact the Midnight Rules Relief Act”
The Congressional Review Act lets Congress undo recent regulatory actions on an accelerated timetable. The chapter says the Midnight Rules Relief Act would let multiple actions be packaged and voted on together, and that robust use of the Congressional Review Act would let the President spend rulemaking capacity on new reforms rather than years undoing the previous Administration's final rules.
What the document actually says“Congress and the President should enact the Midnight Rules Relief Act”
Congress and the president should pass a new law. It is called the Midnight Rules Relief Act.
A president often issues many rules just before he leaves. Congress can undo them, but only one at a time. This bill would let Congress undo them in one batch.
