Executive Order 13862: Revocation of Reporting Requirement

On March 6, 2019, President Trump signed Executive Order 13862, which revoked a requirement for federal agencies to report data on the total cost of regulations. The order eliminated mandatory reporting on cumulative regulatory costs that had been required under previous executive orders. The direct effect was that federal agencies no longer had to compile and submit annual reports quantifying the aggregate costs of regulations to the Office of Management and Budget.
