Regulatory Agency Power

Problem: Per the constitution ALL Regulatory Agencies should NOT have the power they have. That power should rest, per the constitution, with congress.

Solution: Go back to the constitution and make ALL Regulatory Agencies ADVISORY. They would do the same jobs but they would need to report to congress BEFORE they took any actions against Americans.

Yes this would slow things down in DC and yes that’s the point and is a VERY good thing.

Great recommendation. The D.C. swamp was built on a foundation of unelected regulatory bureaucracy. The Code of Federal Regulations is a bloat of nightmarish rules applied by unelected and unaccountable people who couldn’t care less about effective representation of the voting and taxpayers public citizens.

I suggest you take this idea and link it to the top rated idea of bills being one subject at a time.

Bills from congress should be restricted from congress members delegating lawmaking authority to regulatory agencies comprised of unelected bureaucrats.

When the Executive branch needs to implement its authority under any new federal law, it is supposed to deliver on the services or policies of the congressional laws that were passed.

In the laws they pass, congress members must give clear direction on how the law should be implemented with clear limits of power to be used by the Executive branch agencies.
