Congressman Biggs issued the following statement on the House’s passage of his legislation: “Today’s passage of Midnight Rules Relief Act will make it easier for Congress to check the unelected bureaucrats who have been feverishly writing new federal rules before the end of the Biden Administration. In 2024 alone, the Biden Administration has imposed more than $1.34 trillion in regulatory costs, and that number will continue to grow until they leave office. Many of these rules are out of step with the mandate the American people gave us in November, and the tools provided under this Act will allow them to be swiftly addressed. “The Midnight Rules Relief Act will allow Congress and President Trump’s incoming Administration to follow through on our promises to rein in the out-of-control bureaucracy and return power to the American people and those they elect. “I look forward to reintroducing this bill immediately upon returning to Washington, D.C., for the 119th Congress and working with my colleagues—in both the legislative and executive branches—to break down the massive administrative state that has been propped up by Joe Biden and his cronies.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:07:19Z |
