The Fiduciary Reg is Dead... For Now

As planned, U.S. President Donald Trump issued an executive order delaying the DoL fiduciary regulation for 180 days.

Representative (R-Missouri)

Representative Ann Wagner (R-Missouri), chairman of the Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee, was in attendance as the president signed the executive order, and released a statement applauding the decision. Wagner says that she's committed to working towards a permanent repeal of the reg. According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Trump is ordering the DoL to do an economic and legal analysis and then roll back the reg if it doesn't align with Trump administration policy.
