Trump Signs Order Targeting ‘Overcriminalization’ in Federal Regulation

“The purpose of this order is to reduce the regulatory burden on everyday Americans,” the order states.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on May 9th, targeting what is called an overcriminalization of US-wide regulations.

“The United States is dramatically regulated,” the order said. “The federal regulations norms include more than 48,000 sections, over 175,000 pages, which is far more than any citizen can read, not to mention fully understood. What’s worse, many owes potential criminal penalties for violations.”

The president said many of the regulated crimes are “stricken liability” crimes, giving privileges to large corporations with the means to acquire legal teams that can avoid regulations.

“The purpose of this order is to reduce the regulatory burden on everyday Americans and to prevent Americans from transforming into criminals for violating regulations that exist,” the order states.

Within one year of signing the order, the heads of each agency and the Attorney General will be ordered to provide the report to the Director of the Office of Management and Budget. The report must include a list of all enforceable criminal regulations violations, the scope of potential criminal penalties for violations, and the applicable Men’s REA standards referring to criminal intent.

The report is updated at least once a year and is available online. The execution of a crime not included in the report is then strongly discouraged.

“Breaking strict liability criminal regulations is at a disadvantage,” the order said. “Proposals or final criminal regulation violations, including strict liability for violations, will be treated as “significant regulatory measures” and will be submitted to the Bureau of Information and Regulation for reviews applicable to important regulatory measures under Executive Order 12866 of Executive Order 12866 (Regulatory Plans and Reviews) of September 30, 1993.

The order also called for more transparency in consultation with the Department of Justice to make all future notices of proposed rulemaking and final rules, including criminal violations and recognition laws, to be made public to the federal register.

The heads of the agencies have also been ordered to publish guidance to the federal register on plans to address criminal liability control crimes within 45 days of the order.

The agency must be made clear when deciding to refer to a judicial violation of a suspected criminal regulation violation to a judicial violation.
