The ALERT Act of 2024 requires federal agencies to submit detailed information about their planned regulations to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs every month, with that information made publicly available within 30 days. The bill mandates disclosure of each regulation's summary, legal basis, expected cost (in ranges from under $50 million to over $10 billion), potential job impacts, and implementation timeline. Additionally, the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs must publish an annual cumulative report in the Federal Register and online detailing all proposed and finalized rules, cost-benefit analyses, rules repealed or reduced, and agency actions reviewed or challenged in Congress. The legislation also creates a six-month waiting period before most new regulations can take effect, though emergency rules and those involving national security, criminal enforcement, or international trade agreements are exempt. The bill takes effect at staggered intervals, with agency submissions required within 30 days of enactment and the major transparency requirements beginning eight months after passage.
