"Elementary level civics has taught that a bill should become a law by having both houses of Congress pass a law and the president signs the law. However, that is not how many laws are passed in current times. Congress often uses a process called delegation. There is debate over the limits of delegation, but as it stands now, delegation allows Congress to hand over the responsibilities of making law to agencies belonging to the executive branch. In this case, Congress gave the authority to BLM to create criminal laws."
So in this case the guy won, but "because the laws passed by BLM were delegated with too few parameters. Under the non-delegation doctrine, Congress cannot simply hand over the power to an executive branch agency with no guidance. Rather, Congress must create boundaries to what the executive agency can do. When there are no boundaries, the agency’s regulations are not lawful."
Uh, great, but the big problem here isn't what limits Congress sets or not, but the fact federal agencies can create laws, period.
