[Note: HHS had issued the SUNSET final rule on 1/19/21 (day before Biden inauguration), which provided certain review and expiration rules for regulations issued by HHS (rules would have to be reviewed essentially every 5 years and would sunset after 10 years if not reviewed). A lawsuit was filed, delaying its effective date of 3/22/21. This proposed rule would withdraw or repeal the SUNSET final rule.]
