Midnight Rules Relief Act

The Midnight Rules Relief Act streamlines Congress's ability to disapprove regulations issued near the end of a presidential term ("midnight rules"). It allows a single joint resolution of disapproval to cover multiple such rules, rather than requiring separate resolutions for each one. This change applies specifically to rules for which the agency's report was submitted during the final year of a president's term. The bill modifies procedural rules for congressional review but does not alter the substance of the regulations themselves.
