The people who run the government are not the ones elected to government, it is the men and women who work in the offices of the FCC, FDA, etc.  Their only goal is to increase power and to keep their power.  Democrats give them more power, republicans restrict their power (In theory).  They will work against R's and for D's.  

This is basic stuff that I am surprised so many here miss.

Well, you could read Justice Thomas's concurrence in the Judgment (which means "I agree with the result; but not the reasons you used to justify that result") in the case.  It would go a long ways towards answering that question and explaining how someone who has a very positive pro-freedom outlook might still agree with the decision in this particular case.

But we all know that GD isn't the place for anything that can't be explained in one or two punchy catchphrases.

Looks like the opposite of what SCOTUSBlog wrote.... Make sure you notice the differences between interpretive rulings and legislative rulings.  One is advisory, the other has the force of law.   The M855 ban will have the force of law and is therefore a legislative ruling.



From the actual ruling...

Looks like the opposite of what SCOTUSBlog wrote.... Make sure you notice the differences between interpretive rulings and legislative rulings.  One is advisory, the other has the force of law.   The M855 ban will have the force of law and is therefore a legislative ruling.

"When a federal administrative agency first issues a rule interpreting one of its regulations, it is generally not required to follow the notice-and-comment rulemaking procedures of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA or Act). See 5 U. S. C. §553(b)(A). The United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit has nevertheless held, in a line of cases beginning with Paralyzed Veterans of Am. v. D. C. Arena L. P., 117 F. 3d 579 (1997), that an agency must use the APA’s notice-and-comment procedures when it wishes to issue a new interpretation of a regulation that deviates significantly from one the agency has previously adopted. The question in these cases is whether the rule announced in Paralyzed Veterans is consistent with the APA. We hold that it is not."  


From the actual ruling...

The Administrative Procedure Act (APA) establishes the procedures federal administrative agencies use for “rule making,” defined as the process of “formulating, amending, or repealing a rule.”  5 U. S. C. §551(5).  The APA distinguishes between two types of rules: So-called “legislative rules” are issued through notice-and-comment rulemaking, see §§553(b), (c), and have the “force and effect of law,” Chrysler Corp. v. Brown, 441 U. S. 281, 302–303.  “Interpretive rules,” by contrast, are “issued . . . to advise the public of the agency’s construction of the statutes and rules which it administers,” Shalala v. Guernsey Memorial Hospital, 514 U. S. 87, 99, do not require notice-and comment rulemaking, and “do not have the force and effect of law,” ibid.  


So easy to dance around it's not even funny. "Deviates significantly" is in the eye of the jackboots. With the M855 decision they could easily argue that the ammo has actually been AP forever, they just had an exemption for it....so classifying it as AP now isn't a "significant" change. Bingo bango bongo, no comments.

Interpretive rules did not have the force and effect of law.  So this is not the same as legislative rules, which require a comment period.

Is there a specific law from congress stating an agency can not change internal rules? As long as congress and/or judge doesn't slap their dick for interpreting the law wrong?

These days, it's difficult to know the difference between tin foil and prudent skepticism.  The logical part of my brain is saying, "Well, that's a relief and not nearly as bad as I thought."  The cynical, lizard part of it is saying, "That's nice.  They just tried to ban lead-core rifle ammo as steel-cored pistol ammo and half-won because it still only has an 'exemption' rather than being off the LEOPA list entirely."

Sigh, reading sucks here.

D's expand government historically, R's contract it, supposedly.  And that is how government workers vote, at least in DC.  Those same government workers instead of making things smooth sailing for D's, will provide roadblocks to R's, not allowing them to pass much stupid shit.

Government is not run by politicians, it is run by government bureaucrats who are only looking to expand their power and to maintain their power.  They do this by helping those politicians who expand and/or maintain agency power.
