Regulations or policies concerning particular laws are created by the respective governmental agencies that have the duty or authority over such laws. Regulations do not go through the bill process. Proposed regulations do, however, get published for public comment for a period of time before they are finalized and adopted by an agency.  Regulations are published by executive branch agencies to clarify their interpretation of laws within their purview and to give the public guidance as to how the agency will implement those laws. Regulations can state requirements or prohibitions.
