Critics often cite the numerous committees and members of Congress that have jurisdiction over the Department of Homeland Security. They allege that this disparate oversight leads to conflicting direction, inefficiency, and wasted resources. While there is room for improvement, congressional oversight is not as fragmented and ineffective as critics...

President George W. Bush signed the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (PAEA; P.L. 109-435; 120 Stat. 3198) on December 20, 2006.

This report describes Congress’s pursuit of postal reform, and summarizes the major provisions of the new postal reform law. The report also suggests PAEA-related...

This thesis seeks to answer the question How can Congress improve its oversight of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) It is widely accepted that congressional oversight of DHS is, at best, not optimal. Currently, 108 committees and subcommittees have jurisdiction over DHS. To provide some perspective, the Department of Defense (DoD) falls under only 36, with more than 10 times the budget. The jurisdictional disparity between the committees and subcommittees is preventing Congress from...

This paper will explore the implications of congressional oversight of homeland security, specifically the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Oversight of DHS has been extensively researched since the 9/11 Commission recommended that it be reformed. This thesis argues that much of the previous research into this topic relied on a limited view of oversight and used a limited set of tools to measure it. This thesis reviews the existing literature on homeland security oversight and offers...

In recent years, federal agencies and organizations have witnessed their jurisdictions converge in a number of areas that support U.S. national security. For operations that rely heavily upon information technology, the complexity associated with clarifying statutory authority has been met with inconsistent responses. Attempts to comprehend the technological implications of these operations has been accompanied by a shift in seeing the United States Code (U.S.C.) as providing mutually exclusive...

Attorney General's Manual on the Administrative Procedure Act of 1947 Essentially one of the Master Guides of the Administrative State, and all who worship the state.

Often referred to, particularly by government officials attempting to implement their new First Love, the Police State, (Often known as Acting Falsely under Color of Law, or Ushering in the rise of the...

FJC - FEDERAL JUDICIAL CENTER - Section 1983 Litigation Section 1983 lawsuits are what those in custody of prison systems are forced to file in order to avail themselves of their constitutional rights. Despite the TV and Cable propaganda that always has prisoners living the life of luxury, the facts are that there are many prisoners in the USA who are there because they are political prisoners. Often they found out what the system was doing to enrich certain Judges, Politicians or Police, and...

General_Order No 24 Court Registry Investment System - CRrS - DALLAS CHRS, also known as Chris, which stands for Court Registered Investment System. This is the accounting system used by the Judicial Branch (read Judges) who often mis-allocate justice, in the interest of continuing the transfer of wealth from the defendants (that would be actual people, most of the time) to their bank accounts. Of course, something like that would never happen. That is why there is transparency and public...

FJC - Federal Judicial Center - Federal Securities Law - 2003 - 175 Pages This may not be as complete as current version, but it will give you some of the history of securities regulations. Although much of this was started earlier, much of the implementing regulations occurred in the 1930s. A lot of the regulations bears strange resemblance to regulations and recommendations made in germany prior to the 1930s. Makes you wonder who owned those banks in Europe... ...
