CNCS RIN: 3045-AA58 Publication ID: Spring 2015 
Title: Volunteers in Service to America 
Abstract: The Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) is revising regulations governing its AmeriCorps VISTA (VISTA) program authorized under the Domestic Volunteer Service Act of 1973, as amended, 42 USC section 4950 et seq. This proposed rule will provide additional information regarding policies and practices related to the operations, terms, conditions, and benefits of the VISTA program. The proposed rule contains updates as a result of changes in law and agency administration. For example, CNCS will remove all references to its predecessor agency – ACTION – and redesignate the regulations currently in 45 CFR chapter 12 to 45 chapter 25, where CNCS' AmeriCorps and other program regulations are published. Also, CNCS will update the regulations regarding prohibitions on electoral and lobbying activities, including Hatch Act restrictions on VISTA members and sponsors.
