Whether front-page news or not, overrides serve potentially vital functions in American policy-making. Federal statutes?and court cases interpreting them?often require revision. Some are ambiguous, some conflict, and others are obsolete. Under these circumstances, overrides promise Congress a means to repair flawed statutes, reconcile discordant court decisions, and reverse errant judicial interpretations. Overrides also allow dissatisfied litigants to revisit issues and raise concerns in Congress that courts have overlooked. Of course, promising is one thing and delivering is quite another. Accordingly, this book asks: Do overrides, in fact, effectively clarify the law, reverse objectionable judicial statutory interpretations, and broaden deliberation on contested issues? The answers provide new insights into the complex role of overrides in U.S. policy-making and in the politics of contemporary court-Congress relations. 606 $aStatutes$zUnited States 606 $aJudicial review$zUnited States 606 $aLaw$zUnited States$xInterpretation and construction 606 $aPolitical questions and judicial power$zUnited States 615 0$aStatutes 615 0$aJudicial review 615 0$aLaw$xInterpretation and construction. 615 0$aPolitical questions and judicial power 676 $a347.73/12 700 $aBarnes$b Jeb$01503562 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780314103321 996 $aOverruled$93851095 997 $aUNINA
