  • Many of Paul Ryan's opinions on regulation are outlined in the "Path to Prosperity" proposal. The budget proposal is critical of the Dodd-Frank Act. According to the report, "Although the bill is dubbed 'Wall Street Reform,' it actually intensifies the problem of too-big-to-fail by giving large, interconnected financial institutions advantages that small firms will not enjoy."[1]
  • In 2012, Ryan voted in favor of HR 6684 - the Spending Reduction Act of 2012. The bill reduced federal spending on a number of assistance, research and retirement programs.[2]
  • In 2011, Ryan co-sponsored HR 2898 - the Regulation Moratorium and Jobs Preservation Act of 2011, which proposed prohibiting "any federal agency from taking any significant regulatory action until the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reports a monthly unemployment rate equal to or less than 7.7 percent."[3]
