Bill overview
This bill, the Defense Production Oversight Act of 2022, allows Congress to disapprove of actions taken by the President under the Defense Production Act of 1950. Specifically, it amends the Defense Production Act to establish a process for Congress to enact a joint resolution of disapproval if the President invokes certain authorities. This process includes expedited consideration in both the Senate and the House, with specific rules regarding debate time and voting procedures, and a time limit for consideration after the President’s action.
