President Trump halts new federal regulations

By S.A. Miller - The Washington Times - Friday, January 20, 2017

President Trump put a hold on all new and pending federal regulation on his first day in office Friday, with a White House memorandum ordering federal agencies to subject the regulations to review by incoming secretaries.

Rolling back federal regulation was a top campaign pledged from Mr. Trump, who promised to impose a rule that two existing regulation had to be eliminated for each new regulation created.

He has said the regulations had a stranglehold on businesses and slowed job creation and economic expansion.

The memorandum from White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus ordered the agencies to delay sending any new regulation to the Office of Federal Register (OFR) until reviewed by the Trump-appointed secretary or director.

I'd call that a great start.

ETA: that should also send a signal to Senate Dems, to quit slow walking confirmations.

So much for the "serial liar" moniker, thrown out there,  huh?    :laugh:
