A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Office of the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services relating to "Policy on Adhering to the Text of the Administrative Procedure Act".

This joint resolution seeks to overturn a rule from the Department of Health and Human Services related to how that agency follows the Administrative Procedure Act, which is the law governing how federal agencies create and enforce regulations. Congress has a process that allows it to reject specific federal agency rules, and this resolution would use that process to disapprove of this particular HHS policy. No official summary is available for this bill.
