Trump has berated the Postal Service for years, claiming it is exploited by Amazon and other e-commerce sites, and has sought to change how much it charges to deliver packages.Conservative advocates and corporate lobbyists are dusting off wish lists for loosening other rules, and the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, which reviews federal rules, has been churning through the possibilities.
“They already have that process in place,” he said. “What our suggestion is — juice it up and take advantage of it.”“You never want a serious crisis to go to waste,” Rahm Emanuel, President Obama’s first chief of staff, quipped after the 2008 election. “And what I mean by that is an opportunity to do things that you think you could not do before.”
Trump took office pledging to cut regulations, and early in his presidency said he would require that two rules be eliminated for every one added. He stocked his White House with aides who view the regulatory state with disdain. “They should be at least making clear to the public that this nonenforcement policy is not resulting in harmful pollution,” he said.
