It has. in fact. increased greatly. Now is an especially appropriate time to consider the Bumpers amendment. I say this because of the great concern which has been expressed in both the House and the Senate over the impact of the Supreme Courts recent decision in Immigration and Naturalization Service against Chadha. holding unconstitutional the socalled legislative veto. Whatever one thinks about the merits of that decision and the legislative vetoand I admit to always having been a critic of the legislative vetothe fact is that it had become an established part of the system of checks and balances over the exercise of power by the Federal bureaucracy. Unless we substitute other controls the removal of congressional review over rulemaking by the unelected agency chiefs will only increase the potential for the abuse of executive power by countless. nameless. faceless administrators whose decisions have such a tremendous impact on the lives of all Americans.
