When a law is ambiguous the automatic action should be to strike it as unconstitutional. Let the legislature rewrite it and clearly.

I agree. An ambiguous 'law' is no law at all. When faced with such the Court should find the case injusticiable and remand the text back to Congress to straighten out. It should give no consideration whatsoever to any political or administrative consequences of such action.
