Summary

This joint resolution proposes to disapprove a specific rule submitted by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) regarding "Negative Option Rule." The resolution explicitly states that the FTC's rule, published in the Federal Register on November 15, 2024, would have no force or effect if this measure is enacted. Operating under the authority of the Congressional Review Act (Chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code), this resolution provides a mechanism for Congress to overturn agency regulations. Its passage would effectively prevent the FTC's "Negative Option Rule" from being implemented or enforced.
