Holding
The June 29, 2026 Federal Register is the highest-scoring issue in this series, led by the DHS/USCIS Alien Registration final rule (effective June 29, 2026) — requiring all aliens in the United States to register with the federal government under 8 CFR Part 264. This operationalizes a statutory requirement that was historically unenforced, creating enforcement infrastructure that supports deportation and criminal alien identification. Supporting actions include CMS's implementation of Medicaid Community Engagement (work) requirements, the CEQ's withdrawal of environmental regulatory guidance, and an OPM proposed rule facilitating federal workforce realignment. The issue reflects a coordinated week of America First regulatory enforcement.
