A BILL
To require Congress and the President to fulfill their Con-
stitutional duty to take personal responsibility for Fed-
eral laws.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Congressional Respon-
sibility Act of 1995’’.
SEC. 2. PURPOSE.
The purpose of this Act is to promote compliance
with Article I of the United States Constitution, which
grants legislative powers solely to Congress. Article I en-
sures that Federal regulations will not take effect unless
passed by a majority of the members of the Senate and
House of Representatives and signed by the President, or
that the members of the Senate and House of Representa-
tives override the President’s veto. This Act ends the prac-
tice whereby Congress delegates its responsibility for mak-
ing regulations to unelected, unaccountable officials of the
executive branch and requires that regulations proposed
by agencies of the executive branch be affirmatively en-
acted by Congress before they become effective. The Act
will result in a more democratic and accountable Congress
and protect the public from regulations for which elected,
accountable officials are unwilling to take responsibility.
SEC. 3. ENACTMENT OF AGENCY REGULATIONS.
(a) CONGRESSIONAL APPROVAL.—A regulation shall
not take effect before the date of the enactment of a bill
described in section 4(a) comprised solely of the text of
the regulation.
(b) AGENCY REPORT.—Whenever an agency promul-
gates a regulation, the agency shall submit to each House
of Congress a report containing the text of the proposed
regulation and an explanation of the proposed regulation.
