“President-elect Trump has promised to repeal two federal regulations for every new one issued, and the Congressional Review Act, which Reid co-sponsored in 1996, will give him a running start.

The law gives Congress the power to rescind any unwelcome late, so-called “midnight” regulations from an outgoing president through a simple majority vote in both chambers of Congress.”

Here’s hoping it bites them in the neck,hard :twisted:

    Good stuff!

    I’m just wondering – would this law extend to *repealing pardons* that Obama may give?
    The reason I ask (of course) is that it wouldn’t surprise me if he pardoned Hillary – even though she hasn’t (yet) been officially charged with a crime.
