That’s insanity. Why wait when you can have a regulatory body dedicated to understanding and regulating based on those understanding. If they fuck up , the delegating power has the ability to rein it in.
We synonimize "an Act of Congress" with something long, drawn out, and ardorous for a reason. With that ability to rein in locked behind gaining the buy in of the rest of the Congress, it leaves an Executive Agency able to play "scope chicken" with the Congress.
Making law is Congress's job. Id a rule needs making, the Legislature should have in place the framework to handle the act of rulemaking; but importantly, seperately from the enforcement mechanism. The Judiciary should equivalently accommodate a venue for redress of grievance w.r.t interpretations in play.
Failure to do the above without the seperation of power is a failure to govern.
The government is required to give everybody a speedy trial with a jury of their peers. Fines are also required to not be excessive. Violate an executive agency rule and you will not get what is required by the Constitution.
This. I do not think it is appropriate for legislators to delegate as broadly as they have. The default should be for them to not pass laws, if they don’t have time to understand the issues. Instead, they are basically creating new legislative branches under the executive branch.
