The 1776 Philadelphia ConstitutionThe laws of the land, set down plainly — and put to the people, one provision at a time.

Signed into law

Providing congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "California State Motor Vehicle and Engine and Nonroad Engine Pollution Control Standards; The 'Omnibus' Low NOX Regulation; Waiver of Preemption; Notice of Decision".

This joint resolution revokes the waiver granted to the California Air Resources Board regarding new emissions standards for new 2024 and subsequent model year on-road heavy-duty vehicles and engines, off-road diesel engines, and off-road diesel-fueled auxiliary power units.
