RBS
Federal agency responsible for regulations under RBS.
3 regulationsOneRD Guaranteed Loan Regulation
This regulation from the Rural Business Service (RBS) establishes new rules for guaranteed loans that help farmers and rural business owners borrow money more easily. The government backs these loans, meaning if a borrower can't pay back, the government covers the loss, making banks more willing to lend to rural areas.
Removal of Obsolete Regulation
The Rural Business Service (RBS) is removing an outdated regulation that is no longer needed. This cleanup eliminates confusing or unnecessary rules that may have applied to agricultural businesses or rural development programs, making it easier for people to understand what rules actually apply to them.
Removal of Unconstitutional Preferences Based on Race and Sex in Response to Court Ruling
This regulation requires the RBS agency to stop using race and sex as factors in its programs and decisions, following a court ruling that found such preferences unconstitutional. The change affects how the agency awards benefits, contracts, or opportunities, shifting to a system that doesn't consider applicants' race or sex.
