an email from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (Cordray):

Today we are launching our Streamlining Regulations Feedback Web Tool. This tool will enable you to more easily submit suggestions for streamlining regulations we recently inherited from other Federal agencies. If you have ideas, we want to hear from you, and we will listen carefully to your thoughts and suggestions.

Use our new web tool to submit comments on how we can streamline our inherited regulations.

In November of 2011, we asked you to provide input on how we might streamline the regulations we inherited from seven Federal agencies. We asked you to identify provisions of the regulations that the Bureau should make the highest priority for updating, modifying, or eliminating because they are outdated, unduly burdensome, or unnecessary. Our aim is to see where we can reduce the burdens imposed by existing regulations without reducing actual value to consumers. We want you to help us do that.

Our new web tool offers simple drop-down menus and links to regulation text that allow you to find regulations and sections within those regulations more effectively. It also offers multiple comment boxes for you to provide specific feedback that can help us decide how to act.

We want to hear your streamlining ideas. We hope this tool will make it easier for you to share them.

See the new web tool and weigh in on the streamlining of our regulations:

Thank you,
Richard Cordray
Director
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
