Congressional Inquiry And The Federal Criminal Law, J. Richard Broughton
Congressional Inquiry And The Federal Criminal Law, J. Richard Broughton
University of Richmond Law Review
This article supports constraint of the modern federal criminal law regime through greater attention to, and use of, congressional investigation and over =sight powers. Through an analysis of the 2009 and 2010 United States House of Representatives hearings on over-criminalization, this article asserts that Congress has political and constitutional incentives to use its investigation and oversight powers to address these problems. Conventional wisdom asserts that political disincentives to reduce the federal criminal law regime and weaknesses in investigative and oversight powers limit congressional effectiveness.
