State Department publishes rule on May 16

The US State Department published an eight page rule on May 16, according to the U.S. Government Publishing Office.

The rule is focused on Schedule of Fees for Consular Services, Department of State and Overseas Embassies and Consulates.

The State Department is responsibly for international relations with a budget of more than $50 billion. Tenure at the State Dept. is increasingly tenuous and it's seen as an extension of the President's will, ambitions and flaws.

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.
