WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) joined U.S. Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) in introducing the Regulatory Accountability Act (RAA) to reform federal rulemaking by curbing agency overreach, restoring congressional authority, and ensuring that regulations are transparent and lawful while preventing agencies from bypassing Congress and the Constitution.

“This bill restores accountability to a regulatory process that has become overly complex and burdensome, especially for small businesses and workers. It reins in unelected bureaucrats by ensuring major regulations receive proper scrutiny and cost analysis before taking effect. Increasing transparency and simplifying the regulatory process will further economic growth for all Americans,” said Sen. Johnson.
