TLDR Act

Bill 118 s 2225, also known as the TLDR Act, is a piece of legislation currently being considered by the US Congress. The purpose of this bill is to require all federal agencies to provide concise and easily understandable summaries of proposed regulations in addition to the full text of the regulations.

This summary would be written in plain language that is accessible to the average citizen, making it easier for individuals to understand how the regulation may impact them.

The bill also requires federal agencies to provide a summary of public comments received on proposed regulations, as well as a summary of any changes made to the regulation in response to those comments. This transparency is intended to increase public trust in the regulatory process and ensure that the concerns of the public are taken into account. Overall, the TLDR Act seeks to improve the transparency and accessibility of the regulatory process by requiring federal agencies to provide clear and concise summaries of proposed regulations. This will make it easier for the public to understand and engage with the regulations that affect them, ultimately leading to better-informed decision-making and a more responsive government.
