WASHINGTON -- Supreme Court justices from the left and the right expressed skepticism Wednesday at a conservative religious group's argument that Washington state should keep secret the names of 138,500 people who signed petitions in favor of letting voters decide whether to overturn the state's same-sex domestic partnership law. James Bopp Jr., a lawyer for Protect Marriage Washington, argued that those who signed the petition to put Referendum 71 on the ballot would face harassment and intimidation from gay rights groups if their names were made public. Bopp argued that the signers' rights to privacy trumped the state's public records law.

Delegation, "Double Delegation," and Privatization Public participation has long been a central preoccupation of administrative law, a context in which government-run administrative agencies exercise important policymaking responsibility without a direct democratic check by legislatures.4 Indeed, the "delegation problem" in administrative law theory arises specifically from the concern that legislatures may weaken public participation when they confer authority on administrative agencies.5 Accordingly, much of domestic administrative law is concerned with increasing public awareness, participation, and oversight through statutes and doctrines such as the Freedom of Information Act,6 the Federal Advisory Committee Act,7 inspector-general review,8 whistleblower protection statutes,9 ci...
