Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.
This House resolution expresses the sense of the House that the HHS Secretary should withdraw a March 3, 2025 Federal Register notice (90 Fed.
Reg. 11029) that would reduce public notice-and-comment opportunities.
It urges HHS to affirm the public participation practices in effect on February 27, 2025.
As a non-binding House resolution it is not a law; passage in both chambers and legal effect are unlikely despite ease of House adoption.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this bill is a focused, well-specified sense-of-the-House resolution: it clearly identifies the contested notice and requests withdrawal while situating the request within the Administrative Procedure Act and historical practice.

They will support the resolution’s goal yet want clarity on tradeoffs and costs tied to longer or more formal comment procedures.
Skeptical to somewhat opposed.
This persona values process but prioritizes reducing regulatory burdens and improving government efficiency.
They may view maintaining broader notice-and-comment as adding delay and cost, and see the resolution as limiting agency flexibility.
