Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

1 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

Easier public access to agency guidance

If enacted, the bill would define a wide range of agency communications as "guidance documents," including memos, notices, bulletins, letters, blog posts, speeches, and similar items. The Director would pick one public website within 90 days and agencies would put a clear link on their sites. New guidance would be posted the same day it is issued, unless FOIA exemptions apply. Guidance already in effect when the bill passes would be posted within 180 days. When guidance is rescinded, agencies would keep the document, mark it rescinded, show the rescission date, and list a court case number if a court ordered the rescission.
