Rescission of Department of Labor Rule on Guidance

概要

On August 28, 2020, the Department of Labor published a final rule on guidance implementing an Executive order entitled "Promoting the Rule of Law Through Improved Agency Guidance Documents," and providing policy and requirements for issuing, modifying, withdrawing, and using guidance; making guidance available to the public; a notice and comment process for significant guidance; and taking and responding to petitions about guidance. In accordance with the "Executive Order on Revocation of Certain Executive Orders Concerning Federal Regulation," issued by President Biden on January 20, 2021, this final rule rescinds the Department's rule on guidance.
