Key Takeaways:

  • The FAA has initiated comprehensive regulatory reforms in response to President Trump's executive order, aiming to reduce regulations deemed outdated, unnecessary, or harmful to job creation.
  • The FAA's Regulatory Reform Task Force (RRTF) is reviewing existing rules and actively soliciting recommendations from external entities affected by regulations.
  • Entities must submit two detailed reports by specific deadlines (June 1 and August 31) explaining the issues with regulations, their job impact, and cost/benefit analyses for proposed changes.
  • A core principle of the executive order is the "two-for-one" rule, requiring the removal of two existing regulations for every new one introduced.

The FAA recently complied with President Donald Trump’s February executive order for federal agencies to begin comprehensive regulatory reforms. The order was a fulfillment of his campaign promise to “reduce the regulations that are crushing our economy,” as he ordered every federal agency to create a task force to examine existing regulations and identify those that should be eliminated or altered.
