Establishing Congressional Committee to Review and Reduce Federal Regulations

This resolution establishes a temporary Joint Select Committee tasked with systematically reviewing how federal agencies create rules and regulations. The goal is to develop legislative recommendations that increase Congressional oversight, reduce the financial burden of compliance on the economy, and identify specific existing rules for repeal. The Committee is also tasked with analyzing the feasibility of creating a permanent body for rule review.
Key points
Creation of a special Congressional committee to investigate how federal agencies issue over 3,000 new regulations annually.
The Committee is to propose a process where agencies hold the issuance of rules until Congress can review them for a period of not more than 1 year.
The objective is to identify and recommend the repeal of as many existing rules as possible and reduce financial burdens on the economy.
