Senator John Curtis (R-UT) sponsored S.J. Res. 31, a Congressional Review Act (CRA) resolution of disapproval, which would repeal the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) rule under the Clean Air Act that places tighter pollution control requirements on facilities emitting large quantities of seven of the most hazardous air pollutants. The CRA is an extreme and blunt tool that is being used by anti-environmental members of Congress who want to permanently strip away protections for our environment, communities, wildlife, and natural heritage. The rollback of these Clean Air Act protections will lead to vast increases in emissions of the most dangerous air pollutants, harming the public health of communities closest to polluting facilities, which are disproportionately low income communities and communities of color. On May 1, the Senate approved S.J. Res. 31 by a vote of 52-46 (Senate roll call vote 229). NO IS THE PRO-ENVIRONMENT VOTE. The resolution passed the House on May 22.
