Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) introduced the Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny Act in the Senate on Thursday.

His bill intended to take action to "put power back in the people's hands instead of the administrative state," read a press release about the bill. This specifically applies to the current process involving legislation in the government in which regulations go into effect unless explicitly disapproved by Congress. Under Paul's proposal in the REINS Act, major rules would need to be approved by the legislative branch before going to the president for signature and approval.
