How Does Congress Oversee Administrative Agencies? [No. 86]
Administrative agencies are often perceived as free agents with minimal oversight. Professor Christopher Walker explains that Congress actually closely monitors agency activities and expenditures. Each agency is overseen by a specific Congressional committee and important agency staff must be confirmed by the Senate. This ongoing partnership holds agencies accountable for their policies.
Christopher J. Walker is the John W. Bricker Professor of Law at The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law and Director of the Moritz Washington, D.C., Summer Program. Professor Walker’s research focuses primarily on administrative law, regulation, and law and policy at the agency level.
