Summary

This bill requires the Office of Management and Budget to revise the guidelines for federal agencies with respect to the dissemination or use of influential information or evidence, which includes scientific, technical, demographic, economic, financial, and statistical information or evidence that has (or reasonably will have) a clear or substantial impact in developing, issuing, or informing the public about a rule or guidance of the agency.
