Congressional Disapproval of EPA Ozone Pollution Reduction Rule.

This resolution seeks to nullify the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) “Federal Good Neighbor Plan” rule. This rule was designed to impose new emission limits on upwind states whose ozone pollution (smog) drifts into neighboring downwind states, affecting their air quality. If passed, this resolution would stop the federal regulations intended to improve air quality in smog-affected regions.
Key points
Stopping the EPA's federal regulations aimed at limiting ozone pollution transported across state lines.
No new mandatory emission reductions for industries in “upwind” states regarding smog control.
Potential continuation or worsening of air quality in downwind states affected by cross-state pollution, impacting public health.
