How Maya approaches the beat
Maya's reporting starts with the controlling document. She separates announcements from effective rules, puts dates close to the change, and looks for the point where a headline oversimplifies the underlying guidance.
She writes for readers who want the federal rule without agency jargon. Her stories focus on who is affected, when the change starts and what remains unchanged.
