On January 30, 2017, President Trump signed Executive Order 13771 titled, “Presidential Executive Order on Reducing Regulation and Controlling Regulatory Costs.” In this order, President Trump supplemented the longstanding framework for White House regulatory oversight. In addition to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs’ framework for cost-benefit analysis, E.O. 13771 set general requirements for agencies to rescind two new rules for every new one, and it directed agencies not to increase the overall costs that they impose on society — an approach known more generally as “regulatory budgets.”
After two years, how has this new framework fared? To discuss it, the Federalist Society’s Administrative Law Practice Group is pleased to host a teleforum with Jeffrey Harris, who served as OIRA’s Associate Administrator during the implementation of E.O. 13771 and Adam White, Director of the Scalia Law School’s C. Boyden Gray Center for the Study of the Administrative State.
Featuring:
Jeffrey Harris, Partner, Consovoy McCarthy Park
Adam White, Assistant Professor and Director of the Scalia Law School’s C. Boyden Gray Center for the Study of the Administrative State, and Research Fellow at the Hoover Institution
