9:00 am – 10:30 am Democracy and Statutory Interpretation: New Empirical Work and Positive Theory

Victoria Nourse (Moderator) William Eskridge, Abbe Gluck, Edward L. Rubin There is no more basic question of governance than how courts interpret statutes. This panel will feature major new approaches toward interpreting law, based on empirical research and positive theory. These theories challenge current approaches used by courts by engaging with the notion of how Congress governs in our democracy. Participants will discuss a recent empiri-cal survey of congressional staffers and how they draft statutes, rule-based positive theories of statutory interpretation, and meta-theoretic approaches based on democratic theory.

9:00 am – 10:30 am Rulemaking 101

Andrew Emery, Jane C. Luxton, Aditi Prabhu This panel will provide an introductory/refresher course on the procedural steps, legal requirements, and practical constraints applicable to issuing rules. The course will be co-taught by a team of lawyers with government and private practice experience, each bringing out considerations most relevant from their particular perspectives.

9:00 am – 10:30 am The Globalization of Administrative Law: Regulatory Cooperation in the US-EU Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership and Beyond Chris Brummer, Reeve T. Bull, Richard W. Parker, Adam Schlosser, Jeff Weiss

As the world becomes further connected and supply chains for goods and services become further intertwined between trading partners, regulators in several countries will often find themselves with overlapping and duplicative jurisdictions. These changes present many new opportunities for efficiency and growth, but current administrative law procedures in the U.S. are not necessarily designed to ensure optimal coordination between U.S. agencies and their overseas counterparts. The immense emphasis the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) places on regulatory cooperation indicates that administrative law is now considered a key component of trade and growth. This panel will serve to raise awareness of new regulatory cooperation provisions being proposed in the TTIP, as well as current regulatory cooperation activities through the U.S.-Canada Regulatory Cooperation Council and between the U.S. and EU implementing financial market reforms, and highlight many potentially unsettled areas of administrative law, such as the need for new regulatory compatibility analysis that addresses international impact and trade and regulatory equivalent assessments that determine whether two regulatory regimes achieve a compatible outcome. Attendees will gain valuable knowledge about how ongoing international discussions will affect the future of their practice. Both government regulatory experts as well as the general legal community stand to benefit from learning about this topic.

Diana Wick (Moderator) Carlos F. Acosta, Judy Kaleta, Sharon E. Pandak, Richard H. Melnick, Cynthia Rapp The ABA’s Government and Public Sector Lawyers Division’s Ethical Quandaries for Public Lawyers examines the unique ethical issues confronted by public sector lawyers using an entertaining, interactive format. Panelists dramatize short, illustrative scenarios with a discussion period following each hypothetical. A variety of ethics topics will be covered – all from the point of view of the government lawyer.

10:45 am – 12:15 pm The White House Role in the Agency Rulemaking Process

Richard J. Pierce, Jr. (Moderator) Lisa Heinzerling, Jennifer Nou, Michael Livermore This program will discuss the effects of the continued trend toward centralization of regulatory power in the White House. The effects include a variety of changes in the patterns of behavior at regulatory agencies that are designed to retain as much independence from the White House as possible and decentralization of power within the White House.

1:45 pm – 3:15 pm The Democratic Potential and Possible Pitfalls of Social Media & the Administrative State Emily Bremer (Moderator) Alissa M. Ardito, Reeve T. Bull, Michael Herz With the rise of computer-mediated communications in the last decade, legal scholars have de-bated the potential of social media and virtual technologies to transform administrative agency practice in ways that enhance democracy by involving more citizens in agency decision making. In 2009 OMB (Open Government Directive, M-10-16) directed federal agencies to use innovative tools and practices to create new methods of public engagement. Agencies have taken tentative steps to use interactive technologies in a variety of ways, so now is an appropriate time to eval-uate current efforts, highlight existing “best practices,” and propose new models for citizen par-ticipation in agency decision making. This panel will consider both the normative question of whether agency decision making proce-dures suffer from a “democracy deficit” and the practical question of how, if at all, advances in “new media” might be leveraged to mitigate or eliminate any deficiencies. The panel will ad-dress three sets of topics. First, it will consider the legal and policy issues involved in using technology to encourage more meaningful public participation, as addressed in the Administra-tive Conference’s soon to be released report on “Social Media in Rulemaking.” Second, it will examine the tension between widespread participation and informed deliberation that underlies assumptions about the need to democratize agency practice. A new model for citizen participa-tion and accompanying legal reforms offers a novel avenue agencies may wish to explore. Fi-nally, when agencies invite public comment on their social media sites, the First Amendment’s free speech clause is implicated. Few agency attorneys have had to brave the contentious realm of First Amendment jurisprudence, while the Supreme Court and Federal Circuit Courts have yet to opine on the application of free speech doctrines to social media sites. How agencies comply with the First Amendment in such a context is critical but far from self-evident.

1:45 pm – 3:15 pm The George Washington Law Review's Annual Review of Administrative Law

William E. Kovacic (Moderator) John F. Manning, Mariano-Florentino Cuellar, Christopher J. Walker The Annual Review of Administrative Law, published by The George Washington Law Review, is one of the most well-read and widely distributed sources of academia in the field of Administrative Law. This year, the Law Review is proud to publish fine work from three distinguished professors in this field: John F. Manning (Harvard Law School), Mariano-Florentino Cuellar (Stanford Law School), and Christopher J. Walker (Moritz College of Law, The Ohio State University). Professor Cuellar will write the foreword for the publication, while Professor Manning will write an article discussing the use of legislative history under the Chevron doctrine. This year's Volume of the Annual Review will also feature Professor Walker's piece, "Judicial Toolbox for Enhancing Dialogue Between Courts and Agencies," which offers a unique analysis of immigration agency adjudication based upon a study of over 400 published court of appeals decisions. Each author will present his work as part of a broader discussion of developments in Administrative Law. The Panel will be moderated by Professor William E. Kovacic of The George Washington University Law School, former Commissioner of the FTC and recent appointee to the newly-created Competition and Markets Authority in the United Kingdom.

1:45 pm – 3:15 pm Speak No Evil: Changing Controls on Commercial Speech by Federal Enforcement Agencies

James T. O’Reilly (Moderator), Richard J. Leighton, David Kirstein, Richard Samp, Katherine A. Van Tassel Can government suppress commercial speech by prosecuting those who make product claims that are factual, but prior to government approval of that claim? Can government compel the detailed dissemination of airline fare information where the total price is fully disclosed? Can government compel a food firm to suppress truthful information about its products that other-wise might affect a consumer’s purchase decision? Recent cases show a variety of stresses up-on the First Amendment “commercial speech” doctrines as seen in the appellate reports. What does this trend mean for lawyers who counsel clients in the private sector about their marketing approaches?

3:30 pm – 5:00 pm What Technology Can Do for Rulemaking

Neil Eisner (Moderator) Bryant Crowe, Cynthia Farina, Brett Jortland, Christina McDonald, Whitney Patross New information and communication technologies have brought new opportunities but also new challenges for the practice of rulemaking. This panel focuses on three successful applications of technology at various points of the rulemaking process. The structure is designed to give attendees a good introduction to how these technologies work as well as guidance onwhen and how they are most effectively deployed. (1) Panelists from the Department of Transportation and the Department of Homeland Securiy will describe their rulemaking management systems. (2) The next set of panelists will discuss software that sorts and identifies unique text in mass email comments. An official from US Fish & Wildlife Service will describe successful use of such software in several USFWS rulemakings, and a member of the Regulations.gov project management office will describe the version that is available to agencies through FDMS. (3) The final set of panelists will discuss use of Web 2.0 techniques to get broader, better rulemaking participation. A researcher with the CeRI Regulation Room project and an official from the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau, one of the agencies who have done rulemakings on the site, who will discuss how to pick the right rules and use the right tools for successful e-participation.

3:30 pm – 5:00 pm After Sequestration: Getting the Job Done with a Slashed Budget (and Pitfalls to Avoid)

Russell Frye (Moderator), John F. Cooney, James T. O’Reilly, Elise Packard, Karyn Schmidt For federal agencies, 2013 was a year of sequester-related across-the-board budget cuts, staff furloughs, travel bans, etc., and further belt-tightening can be expected. Agencies may look to new ways of doing things in response to newly limited agency resources, but they should be aware of legal and practical limitations. This panel will explore benefits and concerns when an agency turns to private parties for regulatory development and enforcement; limitations imposed by the Antideficiency Act’s prohibition on accepting voluntary services; the extent to which budgetary constraints can excuse compliance with statutory deadlines; issues that arise when an agency wants to encourage private organizations to help “take up the slack” (and to

encourage others to support those organizations); substituting guidance for rulemaking; and so forth.

James T. O’Reilly (Moderator) Bernard W. Bell, Alan Butler, Harry A. Hammitt This program will review legal developments regarding public access to government information and related aspects of privacy law that have occurred in the preceding 12 months. This will include discussion of the Supreme Court’s anticipated decision on the constitutionality of “citizens only provisions in state FOIA laws (McBurney v. Young), FOIA cases involving requests for information relating to the government’s pursuit of the war on terror (such as the video tapes of the raid on Osama bin Laden’s compound), the controversy regarding the accessibility of information regarding gun owners, and other cases and controversies relating to public access to information.

2:30 pm – 4:00 pm Rulemaking in Comparative Perspective

Jeffrey S. Lubbers (Moderator) Susan Rose-Ackerman, Neysun Mahboubi, Mariana Mota Prado, Dorit Rubinstein Reiss Countries may differ substantially in their administrative law, yet there are often striking similarities, too, especially in our globalized world. This panel brings together scholars studying administrative systems from different countries and continents to discuss how rulemaking is handled in their own system. The scholars will each present some of the new developments in their system of choice and highlight both common ground and contrasts. At the end of this panel, participants should understand some of the differences between rulemaking as it is done in the United States and the way other countries or legal systems handle it. Among other things, participants should understand the differences in defining rulemaking; commonalities and differences in the values attributed to good regulatory practices; and different forms that participation and evidence based regulation can take.
