Plain-English Summary
Congress is voting to reject an Environmental Protection Agency rule that sets pollution limits for coke ovens, which are industrial facilities that process coal into coke for steel production. If approved, this resolution would overturn the EPA's stricter air quality standards for hazardous emissions from these facilities, potentially allowing more pollution from steel manufacturers and coke producers. The resolution is currently under review by the Senate's environmental committee.
