Labor Department publishes 40 notices in July

There were 40 notices published by the Labor Department in July, according to the Federal Register.

The most recent notice, Investigations Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance, was submitted on July 30, 2021.

The Labor Department published 45 the month before, marking an 11.1 percent decrease for the current month.

The Department provides billions in unemployment insurance, which peaked around 2011 though spending had declined before the pandemic. Downsizing the Federal Government, a project aimed at lowering taxes and boosting federal efficiency, claimed the Department funds "ineffective and duplicative services and overregulates the workplace".

Notices are required documents detailing rules and regulations being proposed by each federal department. This allows the public to see what issues legislators and federal departments are focusing on.

Any person or organization can comment on the proposed rules. Departments and agencies must then address “significant issues raised in comments and discuss any changes made,” the Federal Register says.
