Agency Rulemaking Watch Agent

No relevant proposed rule is missed, and each has a tracked deadline and a draft response when warranted

Agency Rulemaking Watch Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

Federal and state agencies publish proposed rules every day, and each has a comment deadline. A rule that hurts the member's district can pass without any comment because nobody saw it. This agent watches rulemaking notices, scores each for relevance to the member's priorities and district industries, and summarizes the proposed changes in plain language. It records the comment deadline and checks later for extensions, reopened comment periods, revised proposals and the final rule. When a rule scores high, it compares it with earlier versions and drafts the main points a comment letter could make, using constituent impact and the member's earlier positions. If the first score was wrong because of missing context, it rescored after reading the full notice. The member approves any comment letter. Edge case: a notice has a short 15 day deadline, and the agent flags it first.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

An example run

What happensOn Tuesday 61 notices arrived. The agent scored 4 as high. One, an air quality rule, had a title that looked general, but the full text named boilers used by two district plants, so it was rescored from 5 to 9. The comment deadline was 18 days away. The agent drafted three points on compliance costs. The member approved a letter on day 12.
