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.
