TITLE IV—REGULATIONS FROM 
THE EXECUTIVE IN NEED OF 
SCRUTINY 
SEC. 331. SHORT TITLE. 
This title may be cited as the ‘‘Regulations from the 
Executive in Need of Scrutiny Act of 2023’’. 
SEC. 332. PURPOSE. 
The purpose of this title is to increase accountability 
for and transparency in the Federal regulatory process. 
Section 1 of article I of the United States Constitution 
grants all legislative powers to Congress. Over time, Con-
gress has excessively delegated its constitutional charge 
while failing to conduct appropriate oversight and retain 
accountability for the content of the laws it passes. By 
requiring a vote in Congress, the REINS Act will result 
in more carefully drafted and detailed legislation, an im-
proved regulatory process, and a legislative branch that 
is truly accountable to the American people for the laws 
imposed upon them.
