More precisely, for "determining the meaning of any Act of Congress, or of any ruling, regulation, or interpretation of the various administrative bureaus and agencies of the United States" (http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/PLAW-104publ199/html/PLAW-104publ199.htm). Is it your position that it's unconstitutional for the federal government to determine the meaning of any Act of Congress, or of any ruling, regulation, or interpretation of the various administrative bureaus and agencies of the United States?
