Senate and Biden administration clash over clean water regulations.

TL;DR Summary
Congress has approved a resolution to overturn the Biden administration's protections for the nation's waterways that Republicans have criticized as a burden on business, advancing a measure that President Biden has promised to veto. Republicans have targeted the Biden administration's protections for thousands of small streams, wetlands and other waterways, labeling it an environmental overreach that harms businesses, developers and farmers. They used the Congressional Review Act that allows Congress to block recently enacted executive branch regulations.
