    The Department of Commerce is seeking approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for a non-substantive change to continue the Small Business Pulse Survey. This survey helps collect data on how the COVID-19 pandemic affects small businesses in the United States. The aim is to gather information on changes in business operations, finances, and expectations, as well as disruptions in supply chains. The information will be used to guide the nation’s response to the pandemic, and participation in the survey is voluntary.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants to ask small businesses how they're doing because of the COVID-19 pandemic. They hope to learn what's working and what's not, so they can help more effectively, but they need a lot of answers to figure it out.

    The U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC) has issued a technical amendment to correct a mistake in one of its regulations. The regulation involved is about how complaints concerning prohibited personnel practices are filed, and the OSC fixed the citation of a law to reference the correct version, the Administrative Dispute Resolution Act of 1996 instead of 1998. This change is effective immediately because it is considered non-substantive and in the public's best interest to address it swiftly.

    Simple Explanation

    The Office of Special Counsel fixed a small mistake by changing a reference in its rules to point to the right year, 1996 instead of 1998, so people know which law they mean when dealing with certain workplace complaints.
