🇬🇧 English
This rule removes the Economic Development Administration’s regulations for the Trade Adjustment Assistance for Firms program from the Code of Federal Regulations, effective September 30, 2028. The program is already inactive because its legal authorization expired, and EDA has not been able to accept new firm petitions since July 1, 2022. The change mainly cleans up outdated rules and does not create new duties, benefits, or compliance steps for businesses.
