Midnight Regulations?

George W. Bush vowed not to push through a series of bureaucratic regulations right before he left office. He said he would forbid his agency heads for signing new or controversial rules and regs after Nov. 1. Will he keep his promise? Will he push through a bunch of crap right before Nov. 1?

On today's Diane Rehm Show her guests noted that Bush's midnight regs are about weakening the Endangered Species Act, less regs on workplace safety in the Labor Department, and some concerning protecting doctors who refuse to perform abortions.

So keep an eye out for sketchy rule changes.
