H.Res. 122 (119th): Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 77) the Midnight Rules Relief Act

This House resolution (H.Res. 122, 119th Congress) provides for House floor consideration of H.R. 77, the Midnight Rules Relief Act. The resolution itself is procedural. H.R. 77 would use Congressional Review Act-style disapproval to address regulations issued near the end of a prior presidential term. The metadata does not describe the specific rules targeted.

Theological note: Scripture commends faithful stewardship of lawful authority and orderly governance (Romans 13:1-4; Proverbs 21:1). Questions about whether late-term regulations should be reversed concern how government exercises delegated power and whether rules are just and accountable. Without the underlying rules' text, this procedural resolution does not directly restrain or advance a named moral evil.
