rule-making

Rule-making is the process by which government agencies create detailed regulations to implement laws passed by Congress. These rules specify how the law will be applied in practice, such as safety standards or procedural requirements. The process typically involves drafting proposals, inviting public comments, reviewing feedback, and finalizing the rules. Once established, these rules have the force of law and guide how agencies operate and enforce legal requirements, ensuring consistency and clarity in applying legislative intents to real-world situations.
