"As of [Friday], the number of Obama-era rules that Republicans can toss under the Congressional Review Act has been capped at fewer than 40, according to the watchdog group Public Citizen.

Republican lawmakers have so far used the CRA to toss 13 rules, six of which still require the president's signature.

Conservatives had hoped the CRA could be used to kill hundreds of rules issued in the final months of the Obama administration. But the deadline to introduce resolutions expired yesterday, meaning the additional two dozen rules in the queue are the only ones still eligible to be voted down."
