Overview

• President Donald Trump signed six Congressional Review Act resolutions, including three nullifying Biden-era appliance efficiency regulations.
• The repealed rules include stricter standards for commercial refrigerators, gas-fired water heaters, and energy-efficiency labeling programs.
• Republicans utilized the Congressional Review Act to bypass filibuster rules, enabling a simple majority vote to overturn federal regulations.
• GOP lawmakers argue these regulations limited consumer choice and raised costs, framing them as examples of government overreach.
• This wave of repeals is part of a broader Republican effort to dismantle Biden administration energy and climate policies.
