Secretary Chao received a chilly reception during a Senate hearing yesterday when she refused to commit the Bush Administration to a deadline for producing a new ergonomics standard intended to reduce repetitive stress injuries. The Bush administration plans to enforce new regulations issued during the last two weeks of the Clinton presidency. The regulations would require nearly 10,000 more business to inform the government and nearby residents about lead released into the environment. The site will be updated frequently to include information on the hot regulatory issues of the day.
Suggestions are welcome.
