Contact Congress about S.J.Res. 92: A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval of the EPA rule relating to greenhouse gas emissions standards and guidelines for fossil fuel-fired electric generating units

This resolution would stop an EPA rule that limits greenhouse gas pollution from fossil fuel power plants. It would not create a new rule to replace it.

Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.

A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval of the EPA rule relating to greenhouse gas emissions standards and guidelines for fossil fuel-fired electric generating units is a Senate bill in Congress.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects fossil fuel power plants, utilities, state regulators, and the EPA. Power plants and utilities may avoid this rule’s compliance costs if it is blocked. States may lose the rule’s framework for planning power plant pollution limits. The EPA would lose the power to enforce this specific rule.

Why this matters: This matters because it would decide whether a major EPA climate rule for fossil fuel power plants can move forward. The rule affects how power plants control greenhouse gas pollution. Blocking it could change compliance plans, technology choices, and long-term investment decisions. It could also narrow EPA’s future options if Congress does not pass a new law.

Key provisions in S.J.Res. 92

  • Congress would use the Congressional Review Act to review and reject an agency rule. That law is in chapter 8 of title 5 of the United States Code.
  • The resolution targets one EPA rule on greenhouse gas pollution from fossil fuel power plants. The rule covers new, changed, rebuilt, and existing plants, and it also repeals the Affordable Clean Energy rule.
  • The resolution names the exact EPA rule by its Federal Register listing. The citation is 89 Fed. Reg. 39798, published May 9, 2024.
  • The EPA rule would have no legal effect if this resolution becomes law. That means the EPA could not use or enforce this specific rule.
  • The resolution does not write a new pollution standard or create a new program. It only rejects the named EPA rule.
