Lauren Underwood: “The Department of Homeland Security does not engage in rulemaking behind closed doors. There is a rulemaking process…”

On the recordJune 26, 2024
The Department of Homeland Security does not engage in rulemaking behind closed doors. There is a rulemaking process that involves the public. In fact, it was established by Congress, and it has existed for decades. The amendment would prohibit DHS and its agencies from issuing major rules that are needed in order to implement and carry out laws enacted by Congress. Unfortunately, this is just another example of a bad policy rider aimed at unnecessarily tying the administration's hands. Mr. Chair, I oppose this amendment, and I urge my colleagues to do the same. Mr. Chair, I yield back the balance of my time.
