JACP Act

H.R. 3148, the Joint Administrative Procedures Committee (JAPC) Act, would create a specialized joint committee in Congress tasked with reviewing major federal agency regulations. This committee would evaluate significant existing rules and upcoming regulatory plans to determine if they should be amended or repealed, subsequently making recommendations for legislative action to the relevant congressional committees. For citizens, this bill aims to increase legislative oversight of the federal rulemaking process, potentially leading to the removal or modification of complex federal regulations that impact businesses and daily life.
