    The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) of the Department of Homeland Security announced a 30-day period for public comments on changes to the information collection related to the H-2 program. These changes are in line with the proposed rule titled "Modernizing H-2 Program Requirements, Oversight, and Worker Protections." The notice emphasizes the need for public input, particularly regarding the burden of information collection on businesses and how it may affect H-2 worker compliance. The agency also provided details on how to submit feedback and encouraged stakeholders to consider privacy when providing information.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants to make some changes to rules about work visas called H-2, and they're asking people to say what they think about it. They also need to make sure they're not asking too much information that's hard to give, and they want to know if the way they collect this info is okay or if it needs to change.

    The Coast Guard, under the Department of Homeland Security, issued a final rule to rename the "Gulf of Mexico" as the "Gulf of America" in its regulations. This change follows Executive Order 14172, titled "Restoring Names That Honor American Greatness," and aims to ensure consistency across federal government references. No notice of proposed rulemaking was required for this rule as it makes no substantive changes impacting public rights or obligations. The renaming is effective March 17, 2025, and involves technical amendments with no additional costs to the public.

    Simple Explanation

    Imagine someone decided to change the name of a really big pool called the "Gulf of Mexico" to "Gulf of America," and they did this without asking people what they think because they say it's just a name change and won't affect anyone.
