  • Five Covert Techniques Used by Trump to Cut Government Oversight - Pacific Standard
    https://psmag.com/news/how-trump-is-covertly-deregulating-the-country

    How the Trump administration skirts the obstacles that make it hard for federal agencies to deregulate industries.

    Here are five techniques being used by the Trump administration.

    The Data Dump

    An agency can’t regulate blind. Deprive a regulator of information, and it can’t do much.

    The Enforcement Strike

    Sometimes, just doing less adds up to deregulation, in a form that’s difficult to identify and even harder to challenge in court.

    The Budget Squeeze

    The White House’s decision to impose a so-called “regulatory budget” on government agencies is one of its more innovative moves to shrink the footprint of the federal bureaucracy. Each agency’s allotment creates a sort of deregulatory cap-and-trade system designed to force the agency to make it cheaper for the private sector to comply with rules.

    The Slowdown

    The rush toward the end of the Obama administration to finalize lingering rules left many of them to go into effect after January 20th, when Trump took office. That left open a possibility the White House has embraced: delay.

    The Expanding Exemptions

    Many agency rules include exceptions to their requirements—when or where the rule applies, to whom it applies. Interpreting exceptions expansively or using them more aggressively are ways to cut back on a rule’s practical effect without revising it or taking it off the books.

    Bref, comment mener une politique via des règles administratives sans passer par la loi et le débat public. Il serait intéressant de voir comment ce modèle se déploie un peu partout dans le monde.
