Updated February 2025 Guidance: Please submit weekly reports no later than 3pm ET on Wednesdays; this will allow the Secretary's office time to review and compile the White House report by Thursday morning. We will use Microsoft Teams to share + update the document. The "week ahead" section should cover Wednesday through the following weekend (a 12-day period). For example, if the report is due on Wednesday, February 3, it should cover Wednesday, February 3 through Sunday, Feb 14. This report is intended to help with running a `no surprises' operation, but also to highlight the great work that is being conducted throughout the Department. Lead each entry with the date and if you think an announcement is likely but the date is unknown, it is ok to indicate with a "Date TBD." To that end, items may not be released unless they have been included in the report at least a week in advance. We do not anticipate this guidance necessitating major changes to your current reports or existing review process at the bureau/office level. (For example, if you currently demarcate entries with [NEW, UPDATED, ONGOING], please keep it up.)
