Legislative Issues for 2012
With issues like postal reform, health care, taxes and regulatory initiatives on the minds of printers, will Congress let gridlock and election distractions keep it from acting in the year ahead?
Of a more general nature, the House passed the REINS (Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny) Act to exercise more regulatory control over the agencies. The bill would apply to regulations with an expected economic impact of $100 million or more. With Democrats holding an advantage in the Senate, a vote here is not likely. But 23 Dem seats are up for re-election.
