  • John Kasich unveiled "The Kasich Action Plan" on October 15, 2015. The package included a one-year freeze on major new regulations. It also called on Congress to require mandatory cost-benefit analysis in rule making and to require congressional approval for any regulation costing the economy more than $100 million. The plan included a provision to establish strong central oversight of all new agency regulations and replace agencies’ internally-staffed administrative appeals processes with independent reviews in order to ensure a fair appeals process. The proposal also called for a two-year deadline for new major infrastructure permits.[1] [2] Kasich's plan would also repeal regulations on energy production that are counterproductive, such as the Clean Power Plan[3]
  • At the swearing in of Thomas Johnson, the Chairman of the Ohio Public Utilities Commission, Kasich was quoted as saying, “The ideological effort to deregulate, I'm not so sure it's the smartest thing we've done in the state of Ohio. But we are where we are, and we can't go backwards now. So it's onward in a deregulated environment, and we've got to figure it out."[4]
