Last week, the Department of Justice published an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM), the first step toward a major rulemaking that DOJ says would “modernize” the current regulations, including by clarifying certain exemptions and definitions.
In a client alert today, we review key portions of the ANPRM and the direction it suggests the DOJ envisions for new FARA regulations, which would have implications for our clients, as well as other foreign entities and those who engage with them.
