The House and Senate have introduced Congressional Review Act resolutions aimed at repealing a rule under the Methane Emissions Reduction Program. This rule imposes a waste emissions charge on oil and gas companies that exceed pollution limits, aiming to reduce methane waste, secure energy, and create jobs.

Sister Joan Brown from New Mexico and El Paso Interfaith Power and Light expressed concerns about the resolutions. She stated, "People of faith in New Mexico believe that caring for communities, and our sacred water, air and land is an ethical and moral responsibility. For more than 10 years people of faith and conscience in New Mexico have worked for strong methane safeguards."

The proposed resolutions challenge measures intended to hold polluters accountable for excessive emissions.
