On June 20, 2025, President Trump signed two resolutions into law. The first (S.J. Res. 13) cancels a rule from the Treasury’s Office of the Comptroller of the Currency that changed how bank mergers are reviewed. The second (S.J. Res. 31) blocks an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rule about reclassifying certain large polluters as smaller sources under the Clean Air Act. Both laws use a process that lets Congress reject recent federal rules.
