A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "Modification to the Start of the Submission Period for Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) Reporting and Recordkeeping Under TSCA 8(a)(7)".
Motion to proceed to consideration of measure rejected in Senate by Yea-Nay Vote. 48 - 50. Record Vote Number: 222.
Summary
The Senate joint resolution would use the congressional disapproval authority to overturn an EPA rule that shifts when companies must begin submitting PFAS chemical data under the Toxic Substances Control Act. It targets the EPA's regulatory change and would keep the existing reporting timeline in place. The move reflects concerns about the rule’s timing and impact on industry reporting obligations.
