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.
H.Res. 369 is a non-binding resolution expressing the House's position that the Secretary of Health and Human Services should reverse a recent change that reduces opportunities for public input on new regulations. The resolution, introduced on May 1, 2025, refers to a notice published in the Federal Register on March 3, 2025, and calls for the department to go back to the public comment procedures that were in place before February 27, 2025. The sponsors argue that public participation in the rulemaking process is essential for developing fair policy and that the Health and Human Services Department has followed these procedures successfully for 54 years, affecting millions of Americans. The resolution emphasizes that beneficiaries, state and local governments, and healthcare providers need opportunities to provide input on regulatory changes that directly impact their daily lives and services.
