Welcome to FreedomWorks Foundation’s twelfth regulatory review of 2019! Our Regulatory Action Center proudly updates you with our favorite tidbits from the swamp.

FreedomWorks sent a coalition letter to Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp urging him to support the reauthorization of the Georgia Council on Criminal Justice Reform. The text of the letter and signers are below and a PDF of the letter can be found here.

It seems as if every time the economy starts thriving people on the left begin repeating the same tired old tagline. They claim the economy is only working for the elite and that low-skilled workers are being denied a “living wage.” They complain of inequalities and demand government intervention in the form of minimum wage laws. Sure enough, now that the economy is thriving under the deregulatory agenda of President Trump, people on the left are once again calling for yet another minimum wage hike.

FreedomWorks Foundation's Regulatory Action Center (RAC) is driving comments in support of the Department of Interior's recent proposal related to hunting and fishing regulations. The proposal would provide new or expanded hunting and fishing opportunities at 74 national wildlife refuges and 15 national fish hatcheries managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) across more than 1.4 million acres of land. It would also harmonize federal regulations with state regulations in many cases. This would decrease the patchwork of red tape hunters and fishers have to navigate and would give more power to state and local authorities to determine what's best.
