A new way to kill Trump rules: because I say so
President Trump This week, including 10 Federal Agencies – Environmental Protection Agency, Energy Department and Nuclear Regulatory Commission – to carry out a novel procedure A large number of crumbs in long-term energy and environmental rules.
Gas pipelines from power plants to end power plants from power plants, the provisions of “sunset”, which control the power plants with power plants, said that it will end October 2026.
Experts say the directive is facing great legal obstacles. However, this was one of the three executive orders of Mr. Trump on Wednesday, and it was followed by new shortcuts to weaken or eliminate the rules.
In another orderI focus on a federal rules that restricted water flow to the shower, which limited water flow to the shower heads with a highly unusual legal justification, because I say.
“Attention and comment are unnecessary, because I cancel again,” said Mr. Trump’s command.
Legal experts said this sentence was amazed and contradicted for decades. 1946 Administrative procedure When the federal adherence, revision or canceling, revising or canceling, revising or canceled the procedures, most cases, in most cases, the courts are blocked by the courts.
“All of them are completely illegal,” said Harvard Law School Director of Environment and Energy Program Jody Freeman And President Barack Obama is a former white house official. “Or the real lawyers have left the building or just do not care, and they look at all in such cases and take a flock and bite the courts.”
The regulatory process is often criticized as heavy and time consuming and the idea of ​​all government rules has been promoted from time to time in conservative circles for many years. Is known as Zero-based regulatory budget, A zero-based financial budget, a twist of a system where it is built from scratch every year instead of walking over historical spending amounts.
The idea, Mr. Trump’s billionaire consultant Elon Musk won the last boost. “Regulations should be defaulted,” said Mr. Musk A openly In February, on the social media website, X. “Default went there, not there.
“We must only clean a wholesale spring and remove the government from the back of the daily Americans, so people can be done,” Mr. Musk added.
It is unknown how much the Sunset order will affect how much adjustment. Legal experts said the executive order was “not to apply to authorized regulations with the regulatory regulations, which describes the largest rules permitted by laws and generation of water movements and generation of generation.
“This is a huge cavity that can completely neutralize the rest of the order,” said Michael Gerrard, Director of the Center for Climate Change at the University of Columbia. “Most environmental laws fall into this category.”
Taylor Rogers, a spokesman for the White House, said: “The competitiveness of the President of Americans, or contradictory or contradictory federal laws, or contradictory federal laws, is not aware of the state.”
In another order, “Directing the cancellation of illegal rules“Mr. Trump is 60 days to determine the federal rules they think illegally consider and to determine plans to cancel them.
Still, law experts said the laws written by the Congress, where federal agencies can get rid of the rules are very harsh.
Normally, a federal agency that includes EPA issues or changes an arrangement, publishes a rule offered first and gives a time to comment on a public time. Then the agency provides detailed evidence to read and respond to the comments and to support the changes they want to respond and to show that they apply to public concerns. Then the agency publishes the final rule.
“The administrative act is a boring voice that no one cares for anyone, but he is treated in the basic profession in the law profession,” said Mrs. Freeman. “The federal government is required to do so intentionally to make public entrance and protect their actions. This is a promise that the government may be arbitrarily.”
Have certain conditions where an agency can exceed certain steps. If you say, you need to give urgent rules about aircraft safety.
However, Trump management pushes to use this so-called good reason to release after a wider range of federal rules.
In the past, the trials had been less patient when trying to set the regulatory process of federal agencies. During the first term of Mr. Trump, the authorities sometimes announced their regulation to be reversed by the courts because they were sometimes important steps. The management of the University of New York, the formation of environmental policy, lost 76 percent of higher losses than previous administrations Institute of Politics Heat.
This time around, Trump management officials can hope that the courts are more popular. With the three Supreme Courts appointed by Mr Trump, the court now has conservative superajiary A deep doubt towards the environmental regulation.
In some cases, the actions of management may legally defend. For example, Mr. Trump called on the “shower head” to move the water flow in the showers. In this case, the White House is not a great regulation, but not the same regulation procedure and do not need to go through the same legal procedures. However, experts, the agencies could not argue, Mr. Trump said they could not allow these steps to allow them to be allowed.
“The notice and comment are unnecessary.” “If the Trump is a cancellation, but the only thing that canceled is the only thing that has been canceled, the translator is a rule or not.”
Some say Mr. Trump can plan to expand every five years and make the enterprises difficult to plan for the future.
For example, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, for example, transmission lines are rules of everything from the utility accounting, for the electrical right initiative of Harvard Law School, Ari Peskoe. In the theory, the new order demanded that they periodically end.
“The first part of this decree is talking about how the enterprises are sure.” “But the whole order is a recipe for eternal uncertainty.”
