Rep. Stephanie Bice (R., Okla.) is rolling out her plan to slash burdensome and unnecessary regulations this week, in anticipation of the incoming administration’s plans to create a Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

Bice’s bill, first obtained by the Washington Reporter, is called the Chevron Re-Review Act; it aims to build on the Supreme Court’s Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo decision, which significantly hindered unelected bureaucrats’ abilities to regulate industries.

“According to the National Association of Manufacturers, in 2022, regulations and government inefficiency cost our economy over $3 trillion,” Bice told the Reporter. This is not sustainable. In the wake of Chevron, it is imperative that Congress reassert its Article 1 authority. As we begin this new era, we must ensure we are reviewing and overturning the many rules and regulations which have arisen from the bureaucratic state.”

Bice’s bill would create a process similar to the Congressional Review Act that would ensure that the Supreme Court’s ruling in Loper Bright is implemented. It would also allow for rules or regulations that were upheld in a federal court that either cited or relied on the now-repealed Chevron deference doctrine to be repealed expeditiously.

Under Bice’s Chevron Re-Review Act, Chevron-reliant regulations could be terminated with a vote of a simple majority in both chambers and the sign-off of the president.

Joining Bice as cosponsors are Reps. August Pfluger (R., Texas), Rep. Chuck Fleischmann (R., Tenn.), Rep. Carol Miller (R., W.Va), Rep. Ron Estes (R., Kansas), Rep. Scott Franklin (R., Fla.), Rep. Dan Meuser (R., Pa.), Rep. Celeste Maloy (R., Utah), Rep. Burgess Owens (R., Utah), Rep. Brian Babin (R., Texas), Rep. Marcus Luttrell (R., Texas), Rep. Andy Barr (R., Ky.), Rep. Daniel Webster (R., Fla.), Rep. Claudia Tenney (R., N.Y.), Rep. Rick Allen (R., Ga.), Rep. Beth Van Duyne (R., Texas), Rep. Rich McCormick (R., Ga.), Rep. Tracey Mann (R., Kansas), and Rep. Andrew Clyde (R., Ga.).
