Plain-English Summary

Congress would reject an Environmental Protection Agency rule that sets pollution limits for iron and steel manufacturing plants, preventing the stricter air quality standards from taking effect. The rule was designed to reduce hazardous air pollutants released by these industrial facilities, but this resolution would block it from being enforced. Steel and iron manufacturers would be affected, as would communities near these plants.
