Trump ramps up war on regulations with 702 cuts in pipeline
The Trump administration is aggressively cutting federal red tape, aiming to eliminate 702 regulations by September. This move, unprecedented in its scale, targets environmental reviews, energy standards, and diversity initiatives, projecting $1.5 trillion in economic savings. A key rollback involves repealing the "endangerment finding" for greenhouse gases, a cornerstone of Obama-Biden climate policies. The administration also plans new rules on immigration and transportation security.
