    The Department of Health and Human Services has withdrawn an earlier notice from the FDA about fee rates under the Over-the-Counter Monograph Drug User Fee Program for 2021. This withdrawal is due to the lack of delegated authority for the FDA to issue the notice. Consequently, the FDA has stopped all efforts to collect fees for this program until new instructions are announced. The original notice, part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), was published on December 29, 2020, and is officially withdrawn as of January 6, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is saying that the FDA tried to make people pay fees for certain medicines, but it turns out they weren't allowed to do that, so now they have to stop until they figure things out.

    An Executive Order issued on March 27, 2025, allows the Secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to suspend parts of a previous Executive Order for certain VA subdivisions. This change means employees in those subdivisions, who are represented by specific labor organizations, will now be covered by the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute. The Secretary agrees with the President's view that the VA's primary function is related to national security, making it impractical to fully apply certain employment laws within the VA. The suspension is effective starting from its publication date.

    Simple Explanation

    The President has given the boss of the Veterans Affairs Department special permission to change some rules so that workers in certain parts of the department can have different job conditions, kind of like different playground rules for different kids. This is because some of their work is super important for keeping the country safe.

    The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is reviewing a proposal by Cboe Exchange, Inc. to allow a new type of order that includes both options and futures, known as "future-option orders." The proposal was initially filed in September 2024 and has undergone various stages of review. The SEC decided to give themselves more time—until June 5, 2025—to make a final decision to approve or disapprove this rule change. This extension allows the SEC to thoroughly consider the proposal and any feedback received.

    Simple Explanation

    The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is taking a little more time to decide if a new kind of trade that mixes both options and futures is a good idea. They will make up their minds by June 5, 2025, so they can think about it carefully.

    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is asking the public and other federal agencies for feedback on its information collections, as part of efforts to reduce paperwork burdens in line with the Paperwork Reduction Act. The FCC is particularly interested in the usefulness and accuracy of these collections, how to make them clearer and more efficient, and how to lessen the impact on small businesses. They welcome comments by April 28, 2025, and specific contact information is provided for sending feedback. This request is necessary because the FCC must display a valid OMB control number to sponsor these collections.

    Simple Explanation

    The FCC is asking people to help them make their paperwork easier to understand and less time-consuming. They want feedback about how useful and clear their forms are and how they can make things easier, especially for tiny businesses.
