On January 14, 2023, the Hoover Institution hosts a one-day conference, The Legitimacy of Administrative Law. This conference is part of Hoover’s Revitalizing American Institutions research initiative. It explores the proper role of administrative agencies in the American constitutional order in light of recent Supreme Court decisions that have questioned and sought to rethink basic elements of administrative law, including the nondelegation doctrine, Chevron deference, administrative adjudication, standing, removal, and more.
