The Plain Writing Act of 2010 (October 13, 2010) requires the Federal government to write all new publications, forms, and publicly distributed documents in a "clear, concise, well-organized" manner. Executive Order 13563 (January 8, 2011), Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review, states that "..[our regulatory system] must ensure that regulations are accessible, consistent, written in plain language, and easy to understand." Two other executive orders (E.O. 12866 and E.O. 12988) also cover the use of plain language in regulations.
