HR 8226 United States House · 118th Congress

To require the Comptroller General of the United States to carry out a study regarding major rules issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

HR 8226 requires the Comptroller General to study significant rules issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) every three years. The study must compare the SEC's cost-benefit analyses with its own, track actual costs versus projections, and evaluate whether each rule helps capital formation, promotes fair markets, and protects investors. The Comptroller General will report findings to relevant congressional committees, focusing on the 10 most significant rules if more than 10 exist. This is a procedural requirement for oversight, not a direct policy change affecting businesses or investors.
