Part C: Identifying Executive Agencies

To determine the executive agency for each act, we analyze the act’s focus:

  1. Veterans Educational Assistance Act (2008): Focuses on veterans’ education → Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).
  2. Protect America Act (2007): Focuses on intelligence/terrorism → National Security Agency (NSA) or Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) (primary: ODNI or NSA, but commonly associated with intelligence agencies; key: intelligence tools for terrorism).
  3. Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act (1994): Focuses on law enforcement/prisons → Department of Justice (DOJ) (via FBI, Bureau of Prisons, etc.).
  4. No Child Left Behind Act (2001): Focuses on education → Department of Education (ED).
  5. Helping Families Save Their Homes Act (2009): Focuses on housing/foreclosure → Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) or Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) (primary: HUD).
  6. American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (2009): Focuses on infrastructure → Department of Transportation (DOT), Department of Energy (DOE), etc. (cross-agency, but DOT for roads/bridges).
  7. Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (2010): Focuses on healthcare → Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
  8. Farm Security and Rural Investment Act (2002): Focuses on farming → Department of Agriculture (USDA).
  9. Nuclear Waste Policy Act (1982): Focuses on nuclear waste → Department of Energy (DOE) (oversees nuclear waste disposal).
Part D: DOL Regulation (R) vs. Enforcement (E)
  • Regulation (R): Rules/requirements employers must follow.
  • Enforcement (E): Actions to ensure compliance.
  1. Monitor workplaces (checking compliance) → E
  2. Employers must use a method (rule) → R
  3. Employers must record/report (rule) → R
  4. Evaluate substances (checking compliance) → E
  5. Employees file charges (enforcement process) → E
  6. Educate employers (enforcement-related guidance) → E
  7. Ensure fair treatment (checking compliance) → E
