This joint resolution seeks to disapprove and nullify a final rule issued by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) concerning the regulation of Trichloroethylene (TCE) . The EPA's rule was established under the authority of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), aiming to control this chemical substance. By invoking the Congressional Review Act , the resolution asserts Congress's intent to overturn this specific regulatory action. If passed by both the House and Senate and signed into law, the EPA's rule on TCE would be rendered without any legal force or effect , thereby preventing its implementation and enforcement.
