 Republicans erased record number of Biden regulations in 2025. Here are the worst ones.
Story by Adam Pack • 17h

Congressional Republicans capped off 2025 with one notable accomplishment: overturning a record number of regulations enacted under former President Joe Biden.

Republicans undid 22 regulations issued in the final months of Biden’s presidency that restrict fossil fuel production, phase out the sale of gas-powered cars and limit access to credit in the name of capping overdraft fees. The record number of resolutions of disapproval, used to block regulations, signed into law by President Donald Trump is the most of any Congress since the Congressional Review Act (CRA) was enacted in 1996.
 
GOP lawmakers rescinded 14 Obama regulations during Trump’s first term in 2017.

The CRA allows Congress to rescind recent administrative rulemakings with a simple majority vote in both chambers, along with the president’s stamp of approval.

“By reining in Biden’s heavy-handed bureaucrats, we are saving Americans $180 billion,” Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso said in a floor speech on Dec. 17. “That pencils out to over $2,000 in savings for each and every family.”
