HJRES 90 United States House · 119th Congress

Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission relating to "Commission Guidance Regarding the Listing of Voluntary Carbon Credit Derivative Contracts".

HJRES 90 is a congressional resolution seeking to block a Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) rule about carbon credit derivatives. It targets the CFTC’s October 2024 guidance allowing voluntary carbon credit derivative contracts to be listed on exchanges. The resolution uses a specific legal process (Chapter 8 of Title 5, U.S. Code) to formally disapprove this guidance, meaning the rule would be canceled and have no legal effect. This directly affects how carbon credit derivatives could be traded in financial markets, preventing the CFTC’s guidance from taking effect.
