Rule published on Aug. 19 by Commerce Department

The US Commerce Department published a three page rule on Aug. 19, according to the U.S. Government Publishing Office.

The rule is focused on Changes in the Requirements for Amendment and Correction of Trademark Registrations.

The Department includes the Census Bureau, which is used to determine many factors about American life. Downsizing the Federal Government, a project aimed at lowering taxes and boosting federal efficiency, said the Department is involved in misguided foreign trade policies and is home to many unneeded programs.

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.
