What S.J.Res. 76 does
S.J.Res. 76 would overturn an Environmental Protection Agency rule, published July 31, 2025, that pushed back several deadlines for oil and natural gas facilities. The rule extended deadlines for performance standards covering control devices, equipment leaks, storage vessels, process controllers and vent systems, the start date of the Methane Super Emitter Program, and a deadline for state plans.
Overturning it would restore the original deadlines.
