This is the kind of news I like to see. When we have a clear break from the Bush policies (including the economy, which is still debatable) we will all have good reason to fully be on board. Shutting down ongoing regulation reviews is a very good place to start. Regulation and oversight crumbled under the Bush administration or was handed directly over to industry. We all know the end results in the economy, food, pharmaceuticals, energy, conservation, etc. What a difference a day makes.
President Obama has wasted no time handling the Bush administration's unfinished business.
White House officials tell CNN Obama Chief Staff of Staff Rahm Emanuel sent a memo Tuesday to all agencies and departments of the federal government. The memo halts further consideration of pending regulations throughout the government until a legal and policy review can be conducted by the Obama administration.
