Plain-English Summary
Congress is considering blocking an EPA rule that approves West Virginia's plan to reduce air haze pollution over the next several years, which would overturn the environmental agency's decision if passed. The resolution allows lawmakers to reject the rule through a fast-track process without the normal lengthy debate. This affects West Virginia's air quality standards and the state's power plants and industrial facilities that must comply with pollution limits.
