WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Rep Harriet Hageman, R-Wyo., on Wednesday called on the Biden administration to release the Fall 2024 Unified Agenda of Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions, which is now two months overdue.
A news release from Hageman's office stated that "the delay in publishing this key document undermines transparency, hampers congressional oversight and raises concern that President Biden is interfering with the presidential transition."
The Unified Agenda is a biannual publication that provides the American people, Congress and regulated industries with a clear picture of the administration’s regulatory priorities and upcoming actions. Traditionally released in October, the Fall Unified Agenda is essential for maintaining good governance, regulatory clarity, and accountability, the release said.
“The Biden-Harris Administration’s failure to release the Fall Unified Agenda raises serious questions about what they are trying to hide from the American people," Hageman said in the release. "Wyoming’s hardworking families, ranchers and small business owners deserve to know what new regulatory burdens are coming their way. This lack of transparency undermines good governance and denies us the ability to prepare for what’s next. As we approach the Trump-Vance Administration’s transition, I can only assume that this delay is an attempt to hinder the incoming leadership’s ability to clean up the regulatory mess left behind. I urge the Biden Administration to follow the law, uphold the principles of transparent governance, and immediately release the Fall 2024 Unified Agenda.”
