Regulatory

FMI plays a lead role in engaging with the federal regulatory agencies throughout the rulemaking process to ensure that new regulations are not overly burdensome to our members’ businesses.  We communicate changes in a regulatory update to make sure our members are not caught off guard and out of compliance. FMI’s regulatory work operates alongside our legislative efforts as we often enlist the support of lawmakers during the regulatory process to ensure that the agencies correctly follow congressional intent.
