Join the Center for Progressive Reform and the Coalition for Sensible Safeguards on Thursday, May 1, at 11 a.m. Eastern time for our webinar on Building a People’s Regulatory Agenda Through Rulemaking Petitions. The webinar will explore the strategic value of a coordinated public campaign to leverage the federal Administrative Procedure Act’s (APA) rulemaking petition process to respond to the Trump administration’s attacks on our system of regulatory safeguards.
The webinar will link the potential of rulemaking petitions to a broader strategy of building a “People’s Regulatory Agenda” focused on what agencies should be doing to implement federal laws as Congress intended.
Panelists will introduce the audience to the semiannual regulatory agenda; explain the nuts and bolts of drafting rulemaking petitions, particularly in light of recent U.S. Supreme Court case law; and outline a vision for public interest advocates to begin to reclaim our administrative state through a People’s Regulatory Agenda and APA rulemaking petitions.
