## Summary

**Reduce paperwork burden** on people and businesses. This bill would require agencies to analyze and choose less-burdensome ways to collect information and set up recurring reviews to cut unnecessary or duplicate federal data requests. - Households and small businesses would likely face fewer or simpler federal forms as agencies must consider using already-held data, electronic collection, or statistical sampling. - Federal agencies would have to document an evaluation of alternatives and show information collections are the "least burdensome" necessary based on that analysis. - The Director of the Office of Management and Budget would require agency reviews starting 18 months after enactment and then every 3 years to identify unnecessary, reducible, or duplicative collections.
