    (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this Act is to ensure that before a 
significant rule takes effect--
            (1) Congress is given an adequate opportunity to review the 
        rule and ensure that it is in accordance with the intent of 
        Congress in enacting the law under which the rule is proposed; 
        and
            (2) Congress approves the rule in accordance with the 
        procedures established by this Act.

significant rule shall not take effect before the date of the enactment 
of a joint resolution described in section 4(a) comprised solely of the 
text of the significant rule.
    (b) Reporting and Review of Significant Rules.--(1) Before a 
proposed significant rule would take effect as a final rule, the agency

containing the following:
            (A) A copy of the proposed significant rule.

        under which a rule is proposed, including an explanation of--

                required by the text of the statute; or

                required by the text of the statute, an explanation 
                that the interpretation is within the range of 
                permissible interpretations of the statute as 
                identified by the agency, and an explanation why the 
                interpretation selected by the agency is the agency's 
                preferred interpretation.

subject matter of the report.

related statute.
