Federal agencies released their Fall 2014 Regulatory Plans and Unified Agendas on November 21, 2014, right as lawmakers left Washington for the Thanksgiving break. Agency agendas are released twice a year, detailing all rulemaking efforts at their various stages of development and implementation. The Regulatory Plan is published along with the fall edition of the agenda. The Regulatory Plan identifies agency regulatory priorities and provides information about the significant regulatory actions that the agencies expect to take in the year ahead. According to the new plans and agendas, some contentious labor and employment regulations have been put on the back burner, while others are expected to be released in the coming months. While the target release dates of the agency regulations are often more aspirational than reality, they indicate which items are likely considered priorities. The following lists the agenda highlights by agency.
