Trump signs four executive orders reversing much of Obama's late term agenda.
First, he got rid of the blacklisting rule. “The rule violated the due process rights of contractors by forcing them
to report mere allegations of misconduct — which are often frivolous
and filed with nefarious intentions by special interest groups,” said
Ben Brubeck, vice president of regulatory affairs at the Associated
Builders and Contractors.
Other regulations Trump overturned included the Interior Department’s
land use rule, as well as the Education Department’s rules for teacher
preparation and school accountability.
James Goodwin, senior regulatory policy analyst at the
Center for Progressive Reform, criticized GOP lawmakers for the “orgy of
Congressional Review Act resolutions” they are sending to Trump.
“It’s
an incredibly reckless approach to congressional oversight,” Goodwin
said. “We’re talking about rules that have been in the works for four,
five, six, seven years. They’re lining them up for repeal, even though
they probably have no idea what they do or which agency they came from.”
Kind of refreshing to realize that we are getting back to the basics of governance and moving away from the paralysis caused by the P.C. crowd.
