Require congressional approval of major federal rules
Sullivan supports legislation requiring federal agencies to send major rules to Congress for an up-or-down approval vote. He argues this would prevent agencies from imposing rules that Congress has not approved after similar proposals fail to advance through the legislative process.
Context: The interview does not define what counts as a major rule or specify the legislation’s procedures.
In their own words
would require federal agencies to come back through the Congress with any major rule … and have Congress actually approve up or down the regulation
