HRES 369 United States House · 119th Congress

Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the Secretary of Health and Human Services should withdraw a reduction in public notice and comment opportunities.

This resolution urges the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) to withdraw a March 2025 Federal Register notice (90 Fed. Reg. 11029) that would have reduced public notice and comment periods for proposed regulations. It specifically asks HHS to restore the pre-February 27, 2025 process, which required public input on rulemaking. The resolution emphasizes that public participation in HHS rulemaking - impacting millions through health and human services regulations - is essential for fair policy. As a non-binding resolution, it does not change law but expresses congressional preference for maintaining transparency in the regulatory process.
