In recent months, Republican lawmakers have been using a special legislative tool to repeal former President Joe Biden’s regulations that do not align with the Trump administration’s goals.

House Republicans released a list of regulations in February that they seek to overturn using the Congressional Review Act, a special legislative process that allows lawmakers to bypass the filibuster and vote with a simple majority in both chambers to repeal recently implemented federal rules. Once a CRA resolution is signed into law, a federal agency cannot propose a similar rule in the future.
