Interest groups the federal bureaucracy and Congress form the iron triangle.
Interest groups the federal bureaucracy and Congress form the iron triangle.
The "power of the purse" ---congress can withhold funds from any sector of the bureaucracy which is why the agencies try so hard to influence Congress. In fact, Congress has the power to abolish government agencies and department and eliminate jobs filled by bureaucrats. ( They don't because government workers are also voters and campaigners and there as now so many of them that they can swing elections. Congressmen want to keep their jobs as much as the bureaucrats want to keep theirs. )
There are no middlemen between congress and bureaucracy, they are the same thing. The three levels of government are executive, judicial and legislative.
The federal bureaucracy is under the direction of the President.
The process by which Congress checks the bureaucracy is called oversight. Through various means, such as hearings, investigations, and budgetary control, Congress exercises its authority to oversee and monitor the activities of the bureaucracy, ensuring accountability and compliance with laws and regulations.
The iron triangle refers to the complex relationship between interest groups, Congress, and the federal bureaucracy.
The federal bureaucracy is huge: roughly 2.6 million employees, plus many freelance contractors. Everybody in the bureaucracy works to administer the law. For the most part, the executive branch manages the federal bureaucracy. Although the executive branch controls the majority of the federal bureaucracy, the legislative and judiciary branches also have some influence. Congress, for example, controls the Library of Congress, the Congressional Research Service, and the Government Accountability Office, among other bureaucracies. Through its power of oversight, Congress also monitors the federal bureaucracy to make sure that it acts properly. The courts sometimes get involved in the bureaucracy when issues of law and constitutionality arise, such as when a civil service regulation is violated or if an agency oversteps its jurisdiction. There are five types of organizations in the federal bureaucracy: Cabinet departments Independent executive agencies Independent regulatory agencies Government corporations Presidential commissions
