Congress Pushed to Bring Federal Guidance Into the Open
Original: National Review : Congress Can Finally Drag Federal ‘Guidance’ into the Light
National Review argues that Congress can finally force federal agencies' 'guidance' documents — informal rules that shape enforcement without going through the formal rulemaking process — into public view and accountability. The piece, highlighted by the Pacific Legal Foundation, reflects a long-running conservative and libertarian push for greater congressional oversight of agency power. Supporters say guidance has become a shadow regulatory state; critics worry transparency efforts could slow agencies' work.
Why now: Congress is considering legislation requiring federal agencies to make their guidance documents publicly accessible, renewing debate over agency power.
