119th Congress (1st) Vote 231 - A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Rubber Tire Manufacturing".

Bill 119 hjres 61 is a piece of legislation that aims to disapprove of a rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regarding National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants in the Rubber Tire Manufacturing industry. The bill falls under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, which allows Congress to review and potentially overturn regulations proposed by federal agencies.

The rule in question seeks to establish stricter standards for the emission of hazardous air pollutants from rubber tire manufacturing facilities. These pollutants can have harmful effects on human health and the environment, so the EPA's goal is to reduce emissions and protect public health.

However, some members of Congress believe that the rule is overly burdensome for the rubber tire manufacturing industry and could potentially harm businesses and jobs. They argue that the EPA should work with industry stakeholders to find a more balanced approach that protects both public health and economic interests. If Bill 119 hjres 61 is passed, Congress will officially disapprove of the EPA's rule, preventing it from being implemented. This would require the EPA to go back to the drawing board and potentially revise the rule based on feedback from Congress and industry stakeholders. Overall, the passage of this bill would have significant implications for the regulation of hazardous air pollutants in the rubber tire manufacturing industry, balancing the need for environmental protection with economic considerations.
