Hageman", "H001096", "hageman.house.gov", "hageman", "https://hageman.house.gov/media/press-releases", "scraper", "Washington, DC \u2013 Today, Congresswoman Harriet Hageman called on the Biden Administration to release the Fall 2024 Unified Agenda of Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions, which is now two months overdue. The delay in publishing this key document undermines transparency, hampers Congressional oversight, and raises concern that President Biden is interfering with the presidential transition.\n\nAs required by Executive Order 12866, the Unified Agenda is a biannual publication that provides the American people, Congress, and regulated industries with a clear picture of the Administration\u2019s regulatory priorities and upcoming actions. Traditionally released in October, the Fall Unified Agenda is essential for maintaining good governance, regulatory clarity, and accountability.\n\nCongresswoman Hageman stated, \u201cThe Biden-Harris Administration\u2019s failure to release the Fall Unified Agenda raises serious questions about what they are trying to hide from the American people. Wyoming\u2019s hardworking families, ranchers, and small business owners deserve to know what new regulatory burdens are coming their way. This lack of transparency undermines good governance and denies us the ability to prepare for what\u2019s next. As we approach the Trump-Vance Administration\u2019s transition, I can only assume that this delay is an attempt to hinder the incoming leadership\u2019s ability to clean up the regulatory mess left behind. I urge the Biden Administration to follow the law, uphold the principles of transparent governance, and immediately release the Fall 2024 Unified Agenda.\u201d\n\nBackground\n\nIssued in 1993, Executive Order 12866 provides for the publication of the Unified Agenda every spring and fall. The Unified Agenda helps the President organize the executive branch\u2019s regulatory priorities and ensures that the Office of Management and Budget can coordinate and review regulatory actions.\n\nWithout the Unified Agenda, regulated industries lack the necessary information to prepare, budget, and comply with upcoming regulations. This delay is especially concerning given the $1.7 trillion in new annual regulatory costs imposed by the Biden Administration. The Fall 2024 agenda is the Administration\u2019s final publication, and its availability helps the incoming Trump Administration plan its regulatory and deregulatory agenda to deliver for the American people. Denying this transparency, when President Biden has previously released the agenda, raises concerns about presidential transition interference. Without the Unified Agenda, there is no way for Congress to conduct proper oversight on unelected bureaucrats from potentially pushing through their pet projects unchecked, appropriating power away from the American people. This document ensures transparency, accountability, and the orderly transition of power.\n\n###\n\nContact: Chris Berardi, Sr. Advisor/Communications Director", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T22:13:55Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://hageman.house.gov/media/press-releases/hageman-calls-biden-administration-release-overdue-fall-2024-unified-agenda"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.002008095383644, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
