On June 12, 2024, OMB published a Federal Register Notice (FRN) on Statistical Policy Directive No. 10: Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) System. This FRN publicly announces the start of the 2028 SOC revision cycle and seeks comment on potential revisions for 2028. The SOC classifies all occupations in the U.S. economy, including private, public, and military occupations. The purpose of its 10-year review and revision cycle is to maintain currency and ensure the efficiency and effectiveness of the Federal statistical system, as well as enable continued comparability and relevance of statistical data produced by statistical agencies. Accordingly, this process is designed exclusively for statistical purposes – that is, not for regulatory, enforcement, program administration, or other non-statistical purposes. Comments are due by August 12, 2024, and can be submitted on regulations.gov under Docket ID "BLS-2024-0001".
Improving Federal Disability Data: The Office of Science and Technology Policy, The Office of the Chief Statistician of the United States, and the National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research are co-chairing a Disability Data Interagency Working Group (DDIWG), tasked with the development and release of a Federal Evidence Agenda on Disability Equity, in order to improve the Federal government's ability to make data-informed policy decisions that advance equity for the disability community. This working group recently published a Request for Information in the Federal Register seeking public input on:
The evidence needed to better describe disparities faced by people with disabilities
How to best collect data on disabilities
How to improve public access to disability data
How to best protect privacy, security, and civil rights of individuals who provide data on their disability status
The notice is open for comment until July 15, 2024 and can be found here.

The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (codified as amended at 44 U.S.C. 3501–3520) provides for the coordination of Federal information policy.

It also governs information creation, collection, disclosure, maintenance, use, sharing and dissemination by or for the Federal government.
The Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act of 2018 (codified at 44 U.S.C. 3561–3583) or CIPSEA 2018 (pronounced sip-c), also known as Title III of the Foundations for Evidence-Based Policymaking Act of 2018, reaffirms and expands CIPSEA 2002. Among other things, it codifies the fundamental responsibilities of Federal statistical agencies and units to ensure public trust, and gives statistical agencies and units responsibilities and authorities to facilitate more effective evidence building.
The Fundamental Responsibilities of Statistical Agencies and Units Final Rule, also known as the Trust Regulation, sets forth requirements for recognized statistical agencies and units to carry out their four fundamental responsibilities, as articulated in Statistical Policy Directive No. 1 and CIPSEA 2018. It also sets forth requirements for all other agencies to "enable, support, and facilitate" the recognized statistical agencies and units in carrying out their responsibilities.
