WASHINGTON, D.C.—Today, Congressman Pat Harrigan (NC-10) voted in favor of S.J. Res. 11, a resolution to block a new rule from the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) on protecting marine archaeological resources. The rule, published in September 2024, requires companies involved in oil and gas exploration on the Outer Continental Shelf to submit detailed reports on potential archaeological resources, even when there’s no clear evidence that any exist. The resolution passed the House today.

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Today, Congressman Pat Harrigan (NC-10) voted in favor of H.J. Res. 42, a resolution to disapprove the Department of Energy’s rule on appliance standards. The rule would impose costly new certifications and labeling requirements on certain consumer products, which would raise prices for families and businesses across the country.

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Today, Congressman Pat Harrigan (NC-10) voted in favor of H.J. Res. 61, a resolution to disapprove the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) rule on National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants related to rubber tire manufacturing. This rule, which was published in November 2024, imposes new emissions standards on the rubber tire manufacturing industry.

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Congressman Pat Harrigan (NC-10) has introduced the Guarding Readiness Resources Act to ensure the National Guard has the funding needed to repair and maintain equipment after responding to state emergencies. Right now, outdated bureaucracy is draining resources and leaving essential equipment unfunded, making it harder for the Guard to respond to future missions. Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) is leading the companion bill in the Senate.
