HJRES 38 United States House · 119th Congress

Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "Phasedown of Hydrofluorocarbons: Management of Certain Hydrofluorocarbons and Substitutes Under the American Innovation and Manufacturing Act of 2020".

HJRES 38 is a joint resolution seeking congressional disapproval of an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rule implementing the American Innovation and Manufacturing (AIM) Act. The rule manages the phasedown of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), potent greenhouse gases used in refrigeration and air conditioning, under the AIM Act of 2020. If approved, this resolution would block the EPA rule from taking effect, preventing its implementation of HFC management requirements. This is a procedural disapproval under the Congressional Review Act, not a new law, and directly affects the EPA’s regulatory authority over HFCs.
