Trump signs into law three resolutions nullifying Biden-era energy conservation standards
The resolutions repeal conservation standards targeting gas-fired water heaters, walk-in freezers, and commercial refrigerators, among other things.
President Donald Trump Friday signed into law four Congressional Review Act measures targeting conservation standards for appliances.
These measures include H.J. Res. 20, which repeals conservation standards for gas-fired water heaters. Another measure, H.J. Res. 24, repeals conservation standards for walk-in freezers.
A third measure, H.J. Res. 42, repeals a rule concerning the labeling of products for energy conservation standards, and a fourth resolution, H.J. 75, repeals rules dealing with energy conservation for commercial refrigerators, freezers or refrigerator-freezers.
The Congressional Review Act allows Congress to block certain finalized federal regulations.
