In a continuation of the assault against regulatory agencies, Congressman Andy Biggs (R, AZ) introduced legislation that would abolish the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).

“OSHA’s existence is yet another example of the federal government creating agencies to address issues that are more appropriately handled by state governments and private employers,” Briggs stated in a release.

The bill lacks any language or guidance for states to create their own workplace safety agencies and has received no comment of support yet from the Trump administration. 2/6/2025
