HJRES 160 United States House · 118th Congress

Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Department of Health and Human Services relating to "Nondiscrimination in Health Programs and Activities".

HJRES 160 is a joint resolution seeking congressional disapproval of a rule issued by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) on May 6, 2024, regarding nondiscrimination in health programs and activities. If passed, the resolution would nullify the HHS rule, preventing it from taking effect and rendering it legally unenforceable. The bill directly affects the implementation of the HHS rule, which was published in the Federal Register (89 Fed. Reg. 37522), but does not alter the rule's content or create new policy.
