Every Commerce Department Final Rule 1994-2026 EXCLUDING NOAA (which has its own dedicated dataset of 8,764 fisheries rules). BIS export controls (Entity List additions, Export Administration Regulations EAR, deemed export rules — China/Russia/Iran technology bans), USPTO patent + trademark rules (fee schedules, examination procedures, prioritized examination), NIST cybersecurity framework + measurement standards + FIPS, ITA anti-dumping + countervailing duties (trade remedy investigations), Census Bureau decennial + American Community Survey rules, NTIA spectrum + broadband rules. Distinct vertical from existing trade_screening (CSL list) and uflpa_entities (forced labor list) — this is the rulemaking driver layer. Source: federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents.json with two-pass multi-slug fetch (commerce-department + BIS + USPTO + ITA in pass A, smaller sub-agencies in pass B), NOAA records filtered out at load.
