Problems / Solutions
A rule that comes back
The rule that is never reviewed, the tape a person cannot finish, the major rule that does not wait. An open standard is on the Innovation pages. A license to braid hair is on the Business pages.
Problem
A rule that never comes back
Section 610: a marked rule must return in ten years. About 8.5 percent of active rules were even marked. EPA reviewed 46 of 388.
Solution
Sunset and review
Name the date the rule comes back. A rule that never returns is already law.
Problem
Red tape
Office of the Federal Register: 45,028 pages of rules in 2024. OMB: 10.5 billion paperwork hours in 2023. A page is not a step a person can finish.
Problem
A rule that does not wait
GAO: 119 of 462 major rules from 2021 to 2025 took effect on dates inconsistent with the 60-day wait. About a quarter.
