Plain-English Summary

Congress is considering blocking a Department of Energy rule that sets energy efficiency standards for commercial refrigerators and freezers used in stores and restaurants. If approved, this resolution would prevent those new efficiency requirements from taking effect, allowing manufacturers to continue making these appliances under the old standards. The change would affect businesses that use commercial cooling equipment and could impact energy costs for consumers.
