I will work to eliminate burdensome, overreaching rules and regulations, like WOTUS, and put real limits on federal agencies’ regulatory and rulemaking authority.

Flood promises to limit federal agency regulatory and rulemaking power, especially in response to agricultural regulations like WOTUS.

Evidence

legacy_unverified · Source version not recorded · locator unknown

Congress.gov lists Rep. Mike Flood as sponsor of H.J.Res.64, identifies S.J.Res.28 as an identical bill, and reports that S.J.Res.28 became Public Law No. 119-11 on May 9, 2025. The CRS summary says the measure nullifies the CFPB final rule defining larger participants in the digital consumer payment application market subject to CFPB supervisory authority.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Flood sponsored the House version of a Congressional Review Act disapproval resolution; the identical Senate version became law and nullified a CFPB rule. This is a concrete but narrow regulatory rollback, not a broad structural limit on federal agency rulemaking authority.

GovInfo lists H.R.142 as the Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny Act of 2025, with Mike Flood among the cosponsors. The full title says it would amend chapter 8 of title 5 so major executive branch rules have no force or effect unless a joint resolution of approval is enacted into law; the listed action was introduction and referral to House committees on January 3, 2025.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Flood backed a broad REINS Act vehicle that directly matches the commitment, but the official record shows it only introduced and referred, with no enactment shown. That leaves the broader promise unresolved beyond the targeted CFPB rollback.

Assessments

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): partial. same_term A for effort

Flood materially advanced limits on agency regulatory authority in the 119th Congress by sponsoring H.J.Res.64, the House CRA companion to S.J.Res.28, which became Public Law 119-11 on May 9, 2025 and nullified a CFPB supervisory rule for large digital payment app participants. That is a real federal regulatory rollback in his same congressional term. However, the broader promise implies structural or general limits on federal agencies' rulemaking authority; his broader REINS Act vehicle, H.R.142, was only introduced and referred to committees and was not enacted. The record supports concrete but narrow delivery, not full fulfillment of the broader commitment.
