Providing Accountability Through Transparency Act of 2023

This bill requires federal agencies to include a link to a 100-word plain language summary when publishing notices of proposed regulations. It directly affects all federal agencies that issue rules (such as the EPA or FDA) and makes regulatory information more accessible to the public. The key provision amends federal law to mandate that summaries be posted on regulations.gov, using clear language instead of legal jargon. This change applies to all new rulemaking notices published after the law takes effect. The bill does not alter the content or substance of regulations, only how they are presented to the public.
