Abstract

The authors of this book believe that the President and the Congress are engaged in a constitutional tug of war over the federal administrative agencies. I argue that this view fails adequately to address the politicization of agencies due to partisan congressional influence and oversight. Further, agency capture undermines an agency’s mission.

Keywords: Administrative Law, Independent Agencies, Securities Regulation, Securities and Exchange Commission
