The Senate passed a resolution on March 29, 53–43, to repeal a Biden administration regulation of U.S. waters and wetlands.

The disapproval resolution passed the House on March 9, 227–198. It was passed in accordance with the Congressional Review Act, which allows Congress to strike down regulations within 60 days of passage. However, President Joe Biden is expected to veto the resolution. It’s unlikely that Republicans would get the needed two-thirds majority to override a veto.
