House Passes SCRUB Act
The House has passed the Searching for and Cutting Regulations that are Unnecessarily Burdensome (SCRUB) Act that would establish a review process for regulations and identify those that should be repealed or amended to make them less burdensome. The bill now awaits approval by the Senate. (No word on whether there has been any progress on the act to reduce tortured efforts to come up with catchy acronyms for acts.) [1/8/16]
