Standard Summary
Comprehensive overview in 1-2 paragraphs

This measure is a Senate joint resolution using the Congressional Review Act to block an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rule that would revise Florida’s air plan by removing provisions related to the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR). Specifically, the EPA rule titled “Air Plan Approval; Florida; Revisions to Stationary Sources—Removal of Clean Air Interstate Rule Provisions” was published on July 7, 2025 (90 Fed. Reg. 29745). If Congress enacts this joint resolution, the rule would have no force or effect, meaning the EPA could not implement Florida SIP revisions that would remove CAIR-related provisions. In effect, this is Congress exercising its power to disapprove a federal regulation and block its intended changes to Florida’s air regulatory framework.
