Humpty Dumpty Poopy Pants argues the agencies that write regulations do so because they are experts in the subjects they are agencies for. ATF, EPA, etc. However, the courts are supposed to check this as these regulations are not laws, even though they carry the same weight. the latest pistol brace ban by the ATF is a perfect example. The republicans argue there is not enough oversight by courts because the Chevron case instructs courts to defer to the Federal agencies instead of the law.

The ATF just made millions of law abiding citizens felons at the beginning of this month. The ATF is a law enforcement agency, it does NOT make laws. Yet because of their responsibility to enforce the NFA, they can unilaterally decide to add whatever they want to the NFA (pistol brace) and turn anyone who owns them into a felon. Classic government overreach.

This will probably not pass the Senate, and even if it does the potato will veto, so probably symbolic and therefore no implications.

It's a good bill. Probably won't become law.

If it passes, it means that 3-letter agencies can't add regulations that congress didn't actually include in the law. They do it a lot and abuse their authority.

Previous supreme court ruling basically set a default "defer to the agency" in case of doubt, which allows them to avoid doing their job, which is to interpret the law.

General Implications:

1. No Article II agency (Executive Dept) may usurp Article I Constitutional authority. This means rules, regulations, procedures from Administrative State are NOT LAWS, and when used as such violate both the Constitution and all color of law statutes. If 2 individuals in Federal Gov't (agent/lawyer and a judge) attempt to enforce any rule, regulation, or fine not specifically passed as an enumerated LAW (legislation) by Congress, they may be criminally prosecuted under 18 USC 2384 (i.e. color of law violation of Constitution or Individual Rights).

...or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States...

...they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.

2. Coupled with W. Virginia v EPA (Article II entity may NOT usurp the authority of Article I Congress NOR Article III Judiciary) and Hannepin County property rights case (gov't may not seize more in real property or individual assets than is owed); it may be possible to get a nationwide injunction against the IRS to prevent them from collecting payroll tax. Payroll tax is tax on labor capital (which is illegal AND unconstitutional for the Federal gov't to tax directly), and it is accounting fraud for Accounting firms and Corporations (with no statute of limitations AND no immunity per Hale v Henkel) to intentionally misclassify labor capital as income on a W-2 form.

If you ask your Corporate employer to correctly classify your labor capital on your W-2 by taking it all out of Box 1, and they refuse, you have standing to sue them and make it a class action for all current, former, and previous employees of all acquired companies. Suggested damages is all back payroll taxes, plus "loss of use" of stolen capital damages, plus 12.666% compound interest. These damages may be large enough to effectively liquidate or force into bankruptcy 90% of large US Corps. Also include all current Directors and request seizure of all their assets first to pay all claims prior to liquidation of Corporate assets, as Directors ae individually liable for Constitutional violations and accounting fraud.

Theft of individual property such as labor capital violates the 4th Amendment as well. Use form 4852 and amended return to request all payroll taxes back from IRS for last 5 years. They have granted all of my requests so far. Once you get past 5 years you may have to sue if they refuse to return the payroll taxes. But please put your assets into a Trust before you sue them.
