- Politics
On April 6, 2023, the Biden Administration announced two new efforts to "modernize regulatory review" – the first through the signing of Executive Order 14094 and the second through proposing revisions to OMB's Circular A-4, the government-wide guidance on regulatory analysis. Public comments on the proposed revision of Circular A-4 are due by June 6, 2023.
In this Explainer podcast, Howard Beales, Karen Harned, and Paul Ray discuss the new developments around how the Biden Administration and federal agencies will approach cost-benefit analysis. They explore the importance of long-standing regulatory review processes, concerns around the potential politicization of cost-benefit analysis, changes to the threshold for OIRA to review regulations, and how these developments may ultimately affect the American people.
