What this bill does
H.R. 10535, the Paperwork Reduction Modernization Act of 2026, proposes changes to how federal agencies manage collections of information. Specifically, it would require agencies to evaluate alternatives that could lessen the burden on individuals providing information. These alternatives include using data already held by agencies, employing electronic methods for collection, and utilizing statistical sampling. The bill also mandates that agencies ensure their information collections are the least burdensome necessary to achieve their goals, supported by this evaluation of alternatives.
The bill affects individuals and businesses who provide information to federal agencies, as well as the agencies themselves.
