Write the Laws Act: Congress Must Define All Federal Rules and Penalties.
This bill aims to stop federal agencies from creating new regulations, civil penalties, or criminal offenses on their own, restoring legislative power solely to elected representatives. It mandates that all rules affecting citizens must be fully and completely defined by Congress in an Act. Citizens gain the ability to challenge and block enforcement of rules deemed unconstitutionally delegated, enhancing accountability and due process.
Key points
Federal agencies will be prohibited from creating new regulations, prohibitions, or civil/criminal penalties unless they are fully detailed and defined within an Act of Congress.
The goal is to increase accountability by ensuring that all laws governing the public are written and approved by elected members of Congress, not by unelected bureaucrats.
Citizens are granted a new legal right to sue the government to stop the enforcement of rules that violate this non-delegation principle, strengthening legal protections.
