This measure sets the terms for the House to debate and vote on three items: two efforts to overturn recent energy and environmental rules, and a plan that outlines federal budget levels for the next decade . It schedules consideration of a challenge to a Department of Energy rule on energy-efficiency standards for consumer gas-fired instantaneous (tankless) water heaters, using a law that lets Congress disapprove agency rules . It also schedules consideration of a challenge to an Environmental Protection Agency rule that sets up how companies in the petroleum and natural gas industry would comply with a fee on certain waste emissions, including how exemptions and “netting” would work . Finally, it brings up a congressional budget plan for the federal government for 2025 and sets budget targets through 2034 . This affects House floor action, and indirectly affects consumers buying tankless water heaters, energy-efficiency advocates, the oil and gas industry, and the Energy and Environmental Protection agencies, because the underlying rules and budget plan can move forward or be blocked based on the scheduled votes . The measure itself does not create new programs or funding; it only governs debate and voting on these specific items .
