[Geee]

Washington Examiner:

President Obama has just set a new record for rules and regulations, his administration spitting out 527 pages worth in just one day, as he races to put his fingerprint on virtually every corner of American life and business.

 

According to the Competitive Enterprise Institute, the administration has just shattered the old record for pages of regulations and rules published by the in-house journal, the Federal Register.

 

At 81,640 total pages for 2016, it ranks first and 235 pages more than all of those published in 2010, the previous record.

Congressional officials and anti-regulation groups are tallying up some of the regulations the new president can eliminate under House and Senate rules.
