  • 2024-31358 — Immigration Bond Notifications
    💰
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 535
    Reading Time:about 104 minutes

    The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has finalized a rule allowing the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to send immigration bond-related notices electronically, provided obligors agree to this method of communication. Although no significant changes were made from an earlier interim rule, this final rule clarifies text, updates terminology, and fixes typographical errors. Commenters raised concerns about technical issues, accessibility, and fairness, particularly regarding the new Cash Electronic Bonds Online System (CeBONDS), but the rule aims to make processes more efficient and reduce mail costs. This transition to electronic service is optional, and obligors can still opt for traditional mail service.

    Simple Explanation

    The rules by the Department of Homeland Security let a part of the government send notices about immigration bonds through email to people who agree, making it faster and saving money, but people can still choose to get letters in the mail if they like.

  • 2024-31011 — Updated Means of Providing Recall Notification
    💰
    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:90 FR 1909
    Reading Time:about 70 minutes

    The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is proposing a new rule to improve how vehicle recall notifications are sent to owners. Thanks to the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21) and the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act), this rule would require electronic notifications alongside traditional first-class mail. The aim is to ensure more people are informed about recalls for vehicles or equipment with safety defects. NHTSA seeks public feedback on this proposal and plans to gradually implement it, allowing manufacturers enough time to adapt.

    Simple Explanation

    NHTSA wants to make sure people know if their cars have problems, so they're planning to send notifications through email as well as regular mail—like letters and emails—to keep everyone informed and safe.
