How Cassidy Voted on the Bills That Matter

Their recorded vote on the bills this paper has written up.

• YeaHJRES 44 Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives relating to "Factoring Criteria for Firearms with Attached 'Stabilizing Braces'".

  This law cancels an ATF rule that had classified firearms fitted with stabilizing braces as short-barreled rifles, which would have required owners to register them under federal law. Because Congress used its power to disapprove the rule, the rule no longer applies.

• YeaHJRES 7 Relating to a national emergency declared by the President on March 13, 2020.

  This law ended the national emergency that had been declared on March 13, 2020, in response to COVID-19. Congress voted to formally terminate that emergency declaration.

• YeaHJRES 27 Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Department of the Army, Corps of Engineers, Department of Defense and the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "Revised Definition of 'Waters of the United States'".

  This law disapproves a federal rule that had redefined which streams, wetlands, and other waters count as 'waters of the United States' under the Clean Water Act. Because Congress disapproved the rule, it does not take effect and the agencies cannot issue a substantially similar rule without new authority from Congress.

• YeaSJRES 11 A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "Control of Air Pollution From New Motor Vehicles: Heavy-Duty Engine and Vehicle Standards".

  This law cancels an Environmental Protection Agency rule that set pollution control standards for new heavy-duty engines and vehicles, such as large trucks. Because Congress used a special review process, the EPA is also blocked from issuing a substantially similar rule in the future.

• YeaHJRES 45 Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Department of Education relating to "Waivers and Modifications of Federal Student Loans".

  This law canceled a Department of Education rule that would have allowed waivers and modifications of federal student loans. Congress used a special process to reject the rule, so it does not take effect.

• YeaSJRES 23 A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the National Marine Fisheries Service relating to "Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Regulations for Listing Endangered and Threatened Species and Designating Critical Habitat".

  This law canceled a federal rule from the National Marine Fisheries Service that set procedures for listing endangered and threatened species and for designating critical habitat for them. Because Congress used its authority to disapprove the rule, the rule no longer has legal effect and the agency cannot issue a substantially similar rule without new authorization from Congress.

• YeaHJRES 30 Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Department of Labor relating to "Prudence and Loyalty in Selecting Plan Investments and Exercising Shareholder Rights".

  This law cancelled a Department of Labor rule about how retirement plan managers can weigh factors like climate, social, or governance issues when picking investments and voting company shares. Because Congress disapproved the rule, it does not take effect and cannot be reissued in a similar form without new congressional authorization.
