As an independent U.S. government agency overseen by Congress, since when are they allowed to make law?

As well, when will their overseer (Congress) actually over see this BS?

From the FCC website:
Whenever Congress enacts a law affecting telecommunications, the FCC starts a proceeding to create the rules and policies required by the new law. The commission also may start a proceeding when an outside party files a petition seeking a new law or change in existing rules. Learn more about the rulemaking process and rulemakings in general.

I don't recall Congress making a law for Net Neutrality. And I did they even follow their own process, and allow the public to comment? They really should be calling it Net Neuter.

They are ‘overseen by congres’? Really? Because congress wasn’t evne allowed to read the bill- nor was congress apparently ‘allowed’ to put a stop to this ILLEGAL UNCONSTITUTIONAL power grab
