The "New Source Review Permitting Improvement Act" amends the Clean Air Act to revise the definition of "modification" that triggers stricter pollution control requirements. It specifies that changes only increase pollution if the maximum hourly emission rate increases and excludes changes designed to improve efficiency, reliability, or safety. The Act also clarifies the definition of "construction" and "modifications" for areas not meeting air quality standards, focusing on changes that significantly increase annual emissions. Finally, it ensures that changes not previously considered modifications will not be under the new law.

The Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny (REINS) Act of 2025 aims to increase Congressional oversight of federal regulations by requiring Congressional approval for any "major rule" (defined as having an economic impact of at least $100 million) before it can take effect. The Act also mandates federal agencies to publish detailed information supporting a rule and requires the Comptroller General to report on each major rule. It also directs the Comptroller General to study and determine the number of rules in effect, the number of major rules in effect, and the total estimated economic cost of all these rules and submit a report to Congress with the study's findings within one year of the Act's enactment.
