Yes. This was a priority of the Obama Administration, and Schumer put a lot of political capital behind it. Because the filibuster exists, these proposals always have to start with Republicans being on board.

They could have rammed this through in Obama's first couple of years when they had as many as 58 Senators. Would have been easy to flip a McCain, a Susan Collins or a Lisa Murkowski.

So while they can't take any steps to prevent the federal agencies from doing their jobs, they are perfectly free to refrain from doing anything to help.

Sure, not that I made that claim.
