I am genuinely interested in which slashed regulation(s) caused unemployment to be higher... Any help in providing that?

"The results are substantial: new regulatory burdens are a fraction of those established under President Obama's first six months; overall regulatory volume has slowed to historically low levels; and a number of notable deregulatory measures have been initiated," said AAF's Dan Goldbeck.

The report reviewed the first 200 days of regulatory actions by the Obama and Trump administration:

Total final rule costs: $24.4 billion for Obama vs. $1.2 billion for Trump.
Annual final rule costs: $4.2 billion for Obama vs. $378 million for Trump.
Paperwork burden: 6,803,249 hours for Obama vs. 848,239 for Trump.


"Compared to the Obama administration, the Trump administration has imposed: 1/20th of the lifetime costs, 1/11th of the annual costs, and 1/8th of the paperwork. With nearly 6 million fewer paperwork burden hours, that amounts to the workload savings of roughly 3,000 full-time employees," said the AAF report.
