Congressman Flood Votes to Stop President Biden’s Regulatory Overreach

June 14, 2023

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Congressman Mike Flood issued a statement following a vote on H.R. 277, also known as the REINS Act or Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny Act of 2023.

“From his attempts to dramatically expand the scope of the Waters of the U.S. to his new emissions rule for trucks, President Biden has repeatedly overreached as he imposes new rules on the American economy designed to please Green New Deal activists and other progressive interest groups. It’s time for Washington bureaucracy to get out of the way of job creators. The REINS Act will help ensure federal rules with a significant economic impact receive legislative approval – and will go a long way toward stopping President Biden’s executive overreach.”
