This bill, known as the "Ensuring Accountability in Agency Rulemaking Act," seeks to enhance accountability within the federal rulemaking process. It stipulates that any rule promulgated under section 553 of title 5, United States Code, must be issued and signed by an individual appointed by the President with Senate confirmation . Additionally, the initiation of any such rulemaking and the development of regulatory agendas are required to be undertaken by a senior appointee . An exception permits the head of an agency to bypass these requirements if they determine, on a nondelegable basis, that compliance would impede public safety or security, provided they notify the Administrator of OIRA and publicly disclose this determination. The legislation further mandates that agency heads ensure adherence to these new requirements, and the Administrator of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) is tasked with providing implementation guidance and monitoring agency compliance.
