Many analysts are suggesting that the United States is about to enter a new regulatory era. They point to the need for more regulation on a host of issues, ranging from financial services to food supply. What kind of new federal regulations should we expect? How will political considerations affect the creation of new rules? A distinguished group of scholars and practitioners will answer these and other questions and offer advice to the new administration on designing better regulations.

Participating in the discussion will be Cary Coglianese, director of the Program on Regulation at the University of Pennsylvania Law School; Susan Dudley, the current administrator of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) at the Office of Management and Budget; two former OIRA administrators, John Graham (2001-2006) and Sally Katzen (1993-98); and Resources for the Future senior fellow Richard Morgenstern. Robert W. Hahn, executive director of the AEI Reg-Markets Center, will moderate.
