Chairman Darrell Issa (R-CA) released the following statement on House passage of H.R. 899, the Unfunded Mandates Information and Transparency Act and H.R. 2804, the Achieving Less Excess in Regulation and Requiring Transparency (ALERRT) Act of 2014:

"Transparency and accountability will go a long way to addressing this Administration's runaway expansion of the regulatory state," Issa said. "These reforms bring job-killing federal mandates out of the dark by giving the public ample time to see and prepare for their real costs and economic impact. The reforms of Stop Government Abuse Week are a step in the right direction toward creating an open rulemaking process and undoing the economic damage of the federal government's excessive bureaucratic regulation. The American people deserve no less."
