Bill Summary
A BILL To improve retrospective reviews of Federal regulations, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, known as the "Modernizing Retrospective Regulatory Review Act," aims to improve how federal agencies review and update their existing regulations using modern technology. The bill requires the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to submit a report within 180 days assessing the progress of making federal regulations available in machine-readable format, which means in a digital format that can be easily processed by computers. Within 18 months, the OMB Director must also issue guidance for agency heads on using technology like artificial intelligence and algorithmic tools to conduct more efficient and accurate reviews of existing regulations. Each federal agency will be required to submit a detailed plan within two years outlining their strategy for reviewing regulations, identifying which regulations need review, and determining how to use technology to improve the process. The agencies must then implement their review strategies within 180 days of submitting their plans. The goal is to help agencies identify and address obsolete, ineffective, redundant, or error-filled regulations more systematically and effectively, ultimately streamlining and improving the federal regulatory process.
