Yesterday the OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) announced that the DOC’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) has withdrawn their submitted final rule on “AI Action Plan Implementation”. The final rule was submitted to OIRA on February 26th, 2026.
According to the Spring 2025 Unified Agenda entry for this rulemaking:
“The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) intends to rescind portions of the revisions and additions implemented by the Framework for Artificial Intelligence Diffusion,” published January 15, 2025. BIS intends to issue a new rule which will provide a more streamlined framework for enabling the secure deployment of advanced U.S. AI technology abroad.”
I am not sure why this final rule was withdrawn, but the Administration’s AI Action Plan is a significant part of its agenda, so I would expect BIS to resubmit a revised final rule, sooner rather than later.
As I noted in my earlier post on this rulemaking, this does
not appear to be something that I would expect to cover in any detail, but AI is
increasingly touching on cybersecurity and process management, so it is
something that I would expect to be mentioning in passing.
