Domestic Manufacturing Protection: Halting Greenhouse Gas Emission Regulations

This bill aims to stop the Environmental Protection Agency from issuing new rules on greenhouse gas emissions. These changes will be in effect until China, India, and Russia adhere to the same emission reduction targets as the United States under the Paris Agreement. This means citizens may not see immediate changes in environmental regulations concerning emissions until specific international conditions are met.
Key points
New greenhouse gas emission rules in the U.S. will be paused.
The pause will last until China, India, and Russia meet the same emission reduction targets as the U.S.
The Environmental Protection Agency will annually certify adherence by these countries.
