Federal Powers

Federal Powers examines the vast influence of federal agencies on American life, from shaping national policies to implementing economic regulations. It reveals how these unelected bodies wield significant authority, stemming from powers delegated by Congress, and navigates the complex legal landscape that both empowers and constrains them. The book highlights the importance of understanding administrative law for informed civic participation, emphasizing that while agencies are essential for governance, their actions must adhere to legally defined boundaries.

The book progresses methodically, first establishing the constitutional origins of federal agency power, including a discussion of the delegation doctrine. It then explores the detailed process of agency rulemaking, from initial proposals to final regulations, analyzing their impact on diverse sectors. Furthermore, Federal Powers delves into how agencies resolve disputes, enforce regulations, and the role of judicial review, including the application of Chevron deference.

Finally, the book assesses the checks and balances that limit agency power, involving oversight from Congress, the courts, and the executive branch. By using legal analysis, case studies, and government reports, it provides a balanced view of agency actions, making abstract legal concepts relatable by examining their impact on industries like healthcare and finance. This approach provides readers with a multifaceted perspective on administrative actions.
