This joint resolution would use the Congressional Review Act to cancel a rule issued by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on April 13, 2026. That rule changed the start date of the period when companies must submit reports and keep records about PFAS chemicals under the Toxic Substances Control Act. If the resolution becomes law, the EPA rule would have no force or effect.
