the end of the Biden war on appliances and added costs to extractions

The joint resolution to repeal the Environmental Protection Agency’s methane emission fee rule is the first to pass both chambers, but more CRA action is coming.
The House next week will take up a measure the Senate passed on Tuesday to roll back a requirement that new oil and gas leaseholders on the outer continental shelf submit an archeological report before they can begin production. The lower chamber will also vote on two other CRA measures to repeal rules on appliance energy conservation standards and rubber tire manufacturing emissions.
This week’s 52-47 Senate vote to rescind the methane fee rule fell along party lines, but the 220-206 House vote drew support from six Democrats and opposition from one Republican.
