  • The Case of Chemical Safety Regulation
    \\server05\productn\N\NYU\85-6\NYU605.txt unknown Seq: 1 30-NOV-10 16:29 NATIONAL SECURITY PREEMPTION: THE CASE OF CHEMICAL SAFETY REGULATION MICHAEL JO* In 2006, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) asserted federal preemption of state law governing the security of chemical facilities. The continuing controversy over chemical security preemption reveals one way in which executive power asserts itself in the national security context: the reclassification of seemingly domestic reg- ulatory concerns as matters of national security and the consequent constriction of state regulatory authority. This Note analyzes the DHS’s chemical security regula- tions as a case study for the problem of national security preemption. It argues that the presumption of federal supremacy in foreign affairs can ratify conclusory and unsupported preemption claims because the national security interest mixes both foreign and domestic affairs, while the only doctrinal guidance for defining that interest comes from contested foreign affairs preemption doctrines. The Note pro- poses that, if strengthened, deference doctrines drawn from administrative law pro- vide the best means of scrutinizing and limiting such claims of executive authority. Agency claims of preemption on the basis of national security should be subject to heightened scrutiny. Such scrutiny is more useful than the stalemated positions of the law and security debate for policing the state-federal divide in national security. The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, forced Americans to confront

    EXPOSING THE REVOLVING DOOR IN EXECUTIVE BRANCH AGENCIES Logan P. Emery Purdue University and Mara Faccio* Purdue University, NBER, ABFER & ECGI Abstract: We develop the first comprehensive mapping of the revolving door phenomenon in the U.S. by examining the work experience in executive branch agencies of 1,910,150 individuals covering top corporate positions in 373,011 firms. We document that the phenomenon is prevalent, with one out of three public firms employing a former regulator. Former regulators tend to be hired in response to or concomitant with increased regulation, or concomitant with firms receiving fines. More cheating-prone firms obtain benefits in the form of a lower incidence of fines after hiring former regulators. We do not observe other firms obtaining benefits on average. JEL classifications: D72; K23; G38; L51; J45 Keywords: revolving door, government, enforcement actions, regulation * We are grateful to Elisabeth Kempf, Laura Field, John Matsusaka, Ben McCartney, Deniz Yavuz, and seminar participants at Ball State University, the University of Delaware, and at the International Virtual Research Seminar in Finance co-hosted by Aalborg University Business School; the BAFFI CAREFIN Centre, Bocconi University; the Centre for Governance, Regulation and Industrial Strategy, University of Bath; the Grenoble Ecole de Management; and University of Rome – Sapienza for valuable comments and suggestions. The authors gratefully acknowledge financial support from the “Blake Family Fund for Ethics, Governance and Leadership.” 1 Executive Order 13770, “Ethics Commitments by Executive Branch Appointees,” signed by President Trump on January 28, 2017, drew renewed attention to the flow of personnel between the government and the companies they once monitored or regulated (“the revolving door”).

This series investigates the US's largest law firms, those firms' corporate clients, and how they seek to influence executive branch policies and actions and the larger field of regulatory law.

BigLaw Revolving Door Report 3 Latham & Watkins Introduction During the 2020 campaign, Joe Biden promised to take on corporate monopolies and the wave of mega-mergers sweeping across the economy, most notably in the rapidly-expanding technology sector. Among his most prominent targets was Facebook, whose CEO Mark Zuckerberg he slammed as “a real problem” for permitting the platform to “spread disinformation that undermines our elections.” Biden’s criticism of Facebook represented a major break from the treatment the company received under the last Democratic administration. During the Obama era, regulators were notoriously lax with Big Tech, allowing Facebook to rapidly acquire competitors like Instagram and WhatsApp with little pushback from the federal government. Today, the company wields unprecedented monopoly power over online advertising and social networking, enabling it to stifle competition, exploit user data, and pose a rising threat to democracy itself.
