Congress tries again to address WOTUS rule

Lawmakers are attempting to terminate the Waters of the United States rule.

A repeal of the Biden administration’s updated WOTUS rule through a resolution of disapproval was passed earlier this year, but it was vetoed by President Joe Biden. Lawmakers couldn’t get the votes to override the president’s veto.

Eric Burlison, a U.S. Congressman from Missouri, tells Brownfield the provision is included in the 2024 Army Corps of Engineers budget and the situation is a little different now than it was earlier this year now the U.S.
