Whether Congress impliedly authorized the Secretary of Labor to promulgate legislative rules for the admission of H-2B workers and adjudicate H-2B labor certifications

QUESTION PRESENTED With exceptions not relevant hereto, Congress has expressly bestowed all "administration and enforcement" functions under the Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. §§1101 et seq., including rulemaking and adjudication for the admission of temporary, non-agricultural workers under the H-2B visa program, exclusively on the Secretary of Homeland Security. Jd. §§ 1103(a)(1), (3), and 1184(a)(1), (€)(1). The Secretary adjudicates employer H-2B petitions "after consultation with appropriate agencies of the Government." Id. § 1184(c)(1). The question presented is: Whether Congress, consistent with the nondelegation doctrine and clear-statement rule, impliedly authorized the Secretary of Labor individually to promulgate legislative rules for the admission of H-2B workers and adjudicate H-2B labor certifications. ii
