In a letter shared with The Hill on Thursday, Rep. Darrell Issa (D-Calif.) demands information from newly installed White House budget director Sylvia Mathews Burwell about plans to issue its regulatory agenda.
Burwell oversees the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), which is charged with compiling a list of proposed rules from federal agencies in a Unified Agenda, typically made public in spring and fall.
Last year, the agenda was not released until December, prompting criticism from Republicans who suggested the administration was withholding its rulemaking agenda for political reasons.
