Washington, D.C. — On June 15, Rep. Barry Moore voted in support of H.R. 277, the Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny (REINS) Act. This legislation, sponsored by Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL), would require every new "major rule" proposed by federal agencies to be approved by the House and Senate before going into effect. A "major rule" is any rule that may result in an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more.
"In the first year of his administration alone, Biden added more than $200 billion in regulatory costs to our economy through rulemaking," said Moore. "Biden and his army of bureaucrats are on a mission to enact their radical agenda without the consent of taxpayers. The REINS act would hold Biden and his bureaucrats accountable by forcing them to answer to representatives elected by the American people, and it also holds those representatives accountable by requiring them take a vote on how tax dollars will be spent."
