Did you know that there is a little-known, easy-to-use online tool which allows you to have input into the federal government’s promulgation of regulations at this site: Regulations.gov? For instance, at this page you can comment on the recent “Electronic Registration Requirements for Investment Advisers To Be Investment Managers Under Title I of ERISA.” You can view the proposed regulations in html or pdf format and then submit a comment online.
Internal Revenue Code open regulations appear here.
SEC open regulations appear here (scroll down) including the controversial “Disclosure Regarding Market Timing and Selective Disclosure of Portfolio Holdings” (submit a comment by clicking here) or the “Amendments to Rules Governing Pricing of Mutual Fund Shares” (submit a comment here.)
Also, at this link you can view the regulations for which today is the last day to submit comments.
The site also allows you to search by agency and also by keyword.
