Congress already has the power to oversee agency rulemaking, and agencies can only exercise authority that we grant them.

Regulations protect people in the first place. They help keep disasters like East Palestine from happening.

Under the REINS Act, railroads would have even more leeway to influence rules like this one.

We cannot place companies' greed over public and worker safety and the cleanliness of our air, water, and land.

Regulations ensure that our air is safe to breathe, our water is safe to drink, our food is safe to eat.

the notion of like all they know about is the regulatory process, which is what you say here, that's exaggerated.

Agencies need those regulations to then carry out their work, whether that's investigatory work or enforcement work.

When we do not properly regulate, sometimes it means that trains carrying dangerous chemicals can derail in our communities, putting thousands of people at risk.

This is nothing more than a congressional power grab that will lead to even more deregulation that puts people at risk.

Certainly, in a negative way. We should be listening to those workers.

It's important to remember why we have regulations in the first place.

The REINS Act would grind the gears of rulemaking to a halt by requiring all major rules to be affirmatively approved by both Chambers of Congress.
