Policy In Public - Bank Mergers & Emissions Rules: What Congress Just Rejected
In this two-week (06-15-2025 to 06-29-2025) legislative wrap-up, we break down two joint resolutions that recently passed into law — one blocking changes to how bank mergers are reviewed, and another rejecting an EPA rule that would’ve relaxed emissions standards for major polluters.
We’ll explain:
Why the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency’s bank merger rule got scrapped
What it means for how banks combine and serve communities
Why the EPA’s reclassification plan was overturned — and what that means for factories and air quality
Whether you're team regulation or reform, we keep it clear, neutral, and easy to follow.
Stay sharp. Stay informed. This is Policy in Public.
