Blocks stricter lead dust rules for homes
This bill would cancel the EPA's 2024 rule on dust-lead hazard and post-abatement clearance standards (89 Fed. Reg. 89416). That rule would not take effect or be enforced. Landlords and abatement contractors could avoid new compliance steps and costs under that rule. Families, especially those with young children in older homes, could lose added protections the rule would have provided. The change would take effect upon enactment.
