DOGE AI Targets 100K Federal Rules for Repeal
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has launched an ambitious initiative to overhaul the U.S. regulatory landscape using artificial intelligence. Known as the DOGE AI deregulation program, the effort aims to repeal roughly 100,000 federal regulations deemed unnecessary because they are not required by law. Internal government documents suggest this could cut annual compliance costs by as much as $1.5 trillion and unlock hundreds of billions in new investment.
According to DOGE, the AI tool scans the Code of Federal Regulations, compares each rule to its enabling statute, and determines whether it is legally mandatory. If a rule exceeds congressional requirements or simply repeats statutory language without adding value, it is flagged for repeal. The AI has already been tested at agencies such as the Department of Housing and Urban Development and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, where it reviewed thousands of regulations in weeks instead of months.
The DOGE AI deregulation tool is designed to reduce the massive labor burden of repealing rules. Traditionally, eliminating 100,000 regulations would require millions of man-hours for legal research, drafting repeal notices, reviewing public comments, and finalizing actions. With AI assistance, DOGE claims this workload could be cut by 93%, automating much of the drafting and analysis process.
However, significant challenges remain. The Administrative Procedure Act imposes strict requirements on rule repeals, including public notice, comment periods, and reasoned explanations. Courts have struck down past deregulation efforts that failed to meet these standards, and the use of AI introduces new legal questions about administrative reasoning. Some agency staff have also expressed concerns about outsourcing too much judgment to machines.
Despite these obstacles, DOGE plans to train all federal agencies on the tool by the end of July. Agencies must submit final repeal lists by September 1, with repeal actions scheduled for January 2026 under the “Relaunch America” initiative. Whether the DOGE AI deregulation project survives legal and institutional hurdles may determine how far algorithmic governance can reshape the administrative state.
