Referred to the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, and in addition to the Committee on the Judiciary, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
Summary
The REPORTS Act mandates that whenever a federal agency proposes a major rule, it must include an analysis of the rule’s effect on people near or below the poverty line and on racial inequity. It also directs the Government Accountability Office to publish annual reports for ten years on the impact of selected high‑cost programs on the same groups, with optional focus on the racial wealth gap. The goal is to make the consequences of government actions on vulnerable populations more transparent.
