What we found
Supports. NBC News reports that in 2025 Congress passed 22 CRA resolutions that Trump signed into law, repealing a record number of Biden-administration regulations.[8]
Supports. Scalise's end-of-year recap says House Republicans had 22 CRAs signed into law to undo Biden regulations, and Bice's column says H.J. Res. 24 overturning a Biden walk-in cooler rule was signed by Trump on May 9, 2025.[2][3]
Supports. Mast's list of House-voted reversals includes several resolutions marked as signed by President Trump, such as H.J. Res. 20, H.J. Res. 24, and S.J. Res. 11.[4]
Supports. Schmidt's press release states that the House had voted to repeal 15 Biden end-of-term rules, with several of these signed into law, including the EPA petroleum and natural gas systems rule.[5]
Supports. Speaker Johnson's office claims House Republicans 'erased crushing Biden-era regulations,' a partisan characterization that matches the broader record of CRA repeals.[6]
Context. Some CRA measures only passed the House or were still advancing, and the EPA separately repealed the Biden-era power plant greenhouse gas rule through agency action rather than Congress.[1][7][9]
