OMB Asks the Public for Deregulatory Ideas

What: On April 11, 2025, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) published a request for information asking the public for suggestions on areas that would benefit from deregulation.

Why: OMB is looking for “regulations that are unnecessary, unlawful, unduly burdensome, or unsound.” The agency is specifically seeking comments with “particular attention to regulations that are inconsistent with statutory text or the Constitution, where costs exceed benefits, where the regulation is outdated or unnecessary, or where regulation is burdening American businesses in unforeseen ways.”

Action: Comments are due May 12, 2025.

FEDERAL REGISTER NOTICE:

Read the Federal Register notice and provide comments.
