A new congressional rule offered up by Colorado Rep. Ken Buck is just what Republicans need to roll back President Obama’s regulatory policies, the 4th Congressional District lawmaker from Windsor says.

In many instances, Buck and other conservatives say the president’s mandates often exceed his constitutional authority.  Buck’s office called Obama’s regulations an “agenda of overreach” in a press release Tuesday afternoon.

Buck’s rule calls on the House majority leader to schedule floor time for the consideration of single issue bills related to Article I authority-that is, the separation of powers and the role of the legislative branch, as it’s spelled out in the U.S. Constitution.

“Republicans promised to roll back President Obama’s oppressive regulatory regime,” Buck said in a statement. “This House rule allows Congress to reassert its rightful authority over the executive branch by repealing excessive regulations and overreaching executive orders.”

In the press release, Buck’s office said, the “House will be able to quickly and efficiently assist President-elect Trump in rolling back federal red tape and implementing an agenda to create jobs and secure America.”

Buck’s amendment to the rules states:

(b) It is further the policy of the Republican Conference that-

(1)       the Majority Leader shall prioritize measures that seek to preserve Congress’ authorities under Article I of the Constitution when scheduling the House Floor, which should periodically include, after receiving concurrence from the appropriate committee chairs of primary jurisdiction, designated floor time for consideration of single-issue bills related to exercising such authorities; and

(2)       the Republican Conference shall periodically schedule Planning Conferences to include the topic of preserving and exercising Article I of the Constitution.
