AP US Government
Unit 2 – Branches of Government
Topic 2.1
How might congressional oversight over executive agencies change if committee assignments were random rather than based on expertise?
Committees would likely focus on minor rather than major issues due to lack of expertise.
Agencies' operational efficiency would improve because committees could provide diverse perspectives and solutions.
Oversight effectiveness could decrease due lack of specialized knowledge about agency operations among committee members.
Oversight would be more effective because committee members would not have preconceived biases.
