The GW Regulatory Studies Center and IBM Center for The Business of Government co-hosted a roundtable and reception November 16, 2023 in Washington, DC commemorating the 30th Anniversary of Executive Order 12866 and 20th Anniversary of Circular A-4. The event brought together OIRA Administrators from the past five presidential administrations.
At our May 9, 2023 public forum examining executive actions on Modernizing Regulatory Review, OIRA Administrator Richard Revesz discussed these changes with a panel of former OIRA administrators who served in the Clinton, Bush, Obama, and Trump administrations. That was followed by a panel of experts in regulatory impact analysis at the federal level who explored in more depth the draft OMB Circular A-4.
April 26-27, 2022, the GW Regulatory Studies Center co-hosted senior international government officials, thought leaders in academia and civil society, and business leaders from across sectors for a public forum on agile governance. Co-hosts for this dynamic discussion were the OECD, Google, World Economic Forum, and U.S. Council on International Business.
