In plain English

Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-AK) introduced this resolution to block an EPA rule that sets pollution control standards for ocean-going vessels when they are docked at California ports. The resolution uses the Congressional Review Act process, which allows Congress to overturn recently finalized federal regulations with a simple majority vote in both chambers.
