House and Senate Republicans are readying the little-used Congressional Review Act to repeal perhaps dozens of regulations implemented by President Biden in the waning days of his administration.
Only certain Biden regulations can be axed by the GOP under the act, specifically those finalized by the administration by early August or later.
The list of those eligible for repeal is long and Republican lawmakers are salivating at their chance to wipe some of them off the books as soon as they take control of both the House, Senate and White House in January.
“We’ll do every possible regulation we can get to. We’ll use it on everything possible that’s a bad regulation.” Sen. Rand Paul, Kentucky Republican, said. “It’s a wonderful tool for undoing the bureaucratic excess of the Biden administration.”
