President Donald Trump on Friday, May 9, signed four executive orders and accompanying Congressional Review Act resolutions that dismantle several energy-efficiency regulations introduced under the Biden administration. The measures overturn federal standards for household refrigerators, freezers, gas-fired water heaters and commercial walk-in coolers and freezers, and scrap limits on showerhead water flow. The White House said the rules had raised costs for manufacturers and consumers while offering limited environmental benefit. House Republicans, including Representative Andrew Clyde—whose H.J.Res. 42 addressed appliance standards—championed the legislation. The House Commerce Committee said the four resolutions would reduce red tape, broaden consumer choice and support small businesses. Friday’s actions extend Trump’s broader deregulatory agenda, which the administration argues will curb inflation and stimulate economic growth by easing the regulatory burden on industry and households.

President Trump just signed my bill, H.J.Res. 42, into law to overturn a Biden-era rule that placed unnecessary red tape on manufacturers, limited consumer choice, and increased prices for hardworking Americans. THANK YOU, @POTUS! Another win for the American people. 🇺🇸 https://t.co/ntVttSuVWW
