Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY-21) voted in support of H.R. 26, the Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny (REINS) Act, which passed the House last night.

"When I visit businesses across the North Country, one of the top concerns I hear about is the negative effects burdensome regulations from Washington have on their ability to grow and create jobs," said Congresswoman Stefanik. "The REINS Act pushes back against overregulation by federal bureaucrats and gives power back to the people by requiring that Congress vote on any major rule or regulation coming from the executive branch. This is a commonsense step for transparent and accountable government that will help grow our economy and create jobs for North Country families."
