The ENFORCE the Law Act of 2014 () is a bill that would give the United States House of Representatives and the United States Senate both the standing to sue the President of the United States in a federal district court to clarify a federal law (that is, seek a declaratory judgment) in the event that the executive branch is not enforcing the law.〔 Under the bill, appeals to a court’s decisions could be reviewed directly by the United States Supreme Court.〔 The bill passed in the House of Representatives during the 113th United States Congress. ==Provisions of the bill== ''This summary is based largely on the summary provided by the Congressional Research Service, a public domain source.''〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://beta.congress.gov/bill/113th-congress/house-bill/4138 )〕 The Executive Needs to Faithfully Observe and Respect Congressional Enactments of the Law Act of 2014 or the ENFORCE the Law Act of 2014 would authorize either chamber of Congress, upon adoption of a resolution declaring that the President of the United States or any officer or employee of the United States has established or implemented a policy, practice, or procedure to refrain from enforcing, applying, following, or administering any federal statute, rule, regulation, program, policy, or other law in violation of the constitutional requirement that the President faithfully execute the laws of the United States, to bring a civil action for a declaratory judgment to that effect.〔 The bill would grant jurisdiction to a three-judge panel of a U.S. district court to hear such civil action and provides for an expedited direct appeal to the United States Supreme Court.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「ENFORCE the Law Act of 2014」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
