The Faithful Execution of the Law Act of 2014 () is a bill that would direct the United States Department of Justice to report to the United States Congress whenever any federal agency refrains from enforcing laws or regulations for any reason.〔 In the report, the government would have to explain why it had decided not to enforce that law.〔 The bill was introduced in the United States 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/3973 )〕 The Faithful Execution of the Law Act of 2014 would expand the circumstances under which the Attorney General is required to report to Congress regarding the enforcement of laws to include any instance in which the Attorney General, an officer of the United States Department of Justice (DOJ), or any other federal officer establishes or implements a policy to refrain from: (1) enforcing, applying, or administering any federal statute, rule, regulation, program, policy, or other law within the responsibility of the Attorney General or such officer; or (2) adhering to, enforcing, applying, or complying with, a final decision of any court of jurisdiction respecting the application of the Constitution, any statute, rule, regulation, program, policy, or other law within the responsibility of the Attorney General or such officer. (Currently, reports are not required with respect to the policies of other federal officers and reports concerning nonenforcement of a law are required only when the Attorney General or a DOJ officer refrains on grounds that the provision is unconstitutional.)〔 The bill would require such reports to state the grounds for policies of nonenforcement.〔 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「Faithful Execution of the Law Act of 2014」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
