Bill Summary

Judicial Review Improvement Act of 2017

AI Summary

This bill, the Judicial Review Improvement Act of 2017, aims to specify the scope of judicial review of certain agency actions. Specifically, it requires courts to determine the meaning or applicability of the terms of an agency action and decide all relevant questions of law de novo (anew), rather than deferring to the agency's interpretation. The bill applies to judicial reviews of agency actions under Chapter 7 of Title 5 of the United States Code and defines "agency" to include several major financial regulatory bodies, such as the Federal Reserve, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
