II 28 CFR Ch. I, V 31 CFR Ch. IX Regulatory Agenda AGENCY: Department of Justice. ACTION: Semiannual Regulatory Agenda. SUMMARY: The Department of Justice is publishing its spring 2025 regulatory agenda pursuant to Executive Order 12866, “Regulatory Planning and Review,” 58 FR 51735, and the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 to 612 (1988).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Robert Hinchman, Senior Counsel, Office of Legal Policy, Department of Justice, Room 4252, 950 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20530,

(202)514-8059. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Beginning with the fall 2007 edition, the internet has been the basic means for disseminating the Unified Agenda. The complete Unified Agenda will be available online at *www.reginfo.gov* in a format that offers users a greatly enhanced ability to obtain information from the Agenda database. Because publication in the **Federal Register** is mandated for the regulatory flexibility agendas required by the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C 602), the Department of Justice's printed agenda entries include only: Rules that are in the Agency's regulatory flexibility agenda, in accordance with the Regulatory Flexibility Act, because they are likely to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities; and any rules that the Agency has identified for periodic review under section 610 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. Printing of these entries is limited to fields that contain information required by the Regulatory Flexibility Act's Agenda requirements. Additional information on these entries is available in the Unified Agenda published on the internet. Nicholas Schilling, Jr., Supervisory Official, Office of Legal Policy.

However, many public entities' ( *i.e.,* State and local governments') websites and mobile apps fail to incorporate or activate features that enable users with disabilities to access the public entity's services, programs, and activities. Accordingly, on April 24, 2024, the Department published a final rule revising its regulations implementing title II of the

(ADA)to provide technical standards to assist public entities in complying with their existing obligations to make their websites and mobile apps accessible to individuals with disabilities. (89 FR 31320) The Department now plans to publish a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

The Order directs the Attorney General to issue regulations that prohibit or otherwise restrict United States persons from engaging in any acquisition, holding, use, transfer, transportation, or exportation of, or dealing in, any property in which a foreign person has any interest, where the transaction:

(c)meets other criteria specified by the Order. On March 5, 2024, the Department published an Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) seeking public comment on various topics related to the implementation of the Order, including designating countries of concern and covered persons, identifying prohibited and restricted data transactions, defining U.S. governmentrelated data and bulk U.S. sensitive personal data, and other provisions relating to the Order's interpretation, enforcement, and compliance therewith.
