Law: Administrative/Executive Branch Materials
The Exectuve branch is tasked with implementing legislation. Regulations are the rules developed by government agencies like the EPA or FDA to deal with specific details not included in legislation. Regulations are introduced in the Federal Register, which is published daily, and the public is given a set period of time to comment on the proposed regulations. The final version of the regulation is also published in the Federal Register and then codified (arranged by subject) in the Code of Federal Regulations.
Federal Register (FR)
Published by the Office of the Federal Register, National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), the Federal Register is the official daily publication for rules, proposed rules, and notices of Federal agencies and organizations, as well as executive orders and other presidential documents.
