Republican senators determined to 'undo' Biden rules right away: report
Republican Senators expressed their eagerness Wednesday to "erase" a list of President Joe Biden's rules and regulations as soon as possible, according to Axios.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) told the news outlet that he has a "'fairly lengthy list' of last-minute Biden regulations" he'd like to see undone over the next few weeks, while Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) has his eyes set on rules set by the president over the few months.
"We are scrubbing right now to determine what is eligible," Thune said during an event Tuesday, according to Axios.

Meanwhile, the news outlet notes that Cruz is expected "to kick things off next week by introducing three resolutions to erase Biden moves on crypto, energy and internet access."
Axios reports, "One resolution would rescind a December regulation by the Energy Department that regulated gas water heaters," while the second would get rid of an IRS rule that "requires more reporting on income earned in cryptocurrencies."
The third, according to the report, "is a FCC regulation that allow schools and libraries to lend Wifi hotspots to students through the E-Rate program. Cruz argued it violates the Communications Act, increases taxes and "opens up children to real risks of abuse" with no limits on their broadband usage."
