Bush Forces a Shift In Regulatory Thrust By Amy Goldstein and Sarah Cohen, Washington Post

In the past 3 1/2 years, OSHA, the branch of the Labor Department in charge of workers' well-being, has eliminated nearly five times as many pending standards as it has completed. It has not started any major new health or safety rules, setting Bush apart from the previous three presidents, including Ronald Reagan.
