Summary

10th Amendment Restoration Act of 2017

This bill establishes the Constitutional Government Review Commission, which shall review the authorizing statute and statutory authority of each agency to determine if they should be repealed to eliminate federal powers not definitively delegated by the Constitution.

The commission, after completing any such review, shall: (1) recommend whether immediate repeal action is appropriate, (2) prepare an estimate of federal spending or revenue changes resulting from adoption of a repeal recommendation, and (3) prepare a recommendation for distributing any federal budget savings among the states for the administration of powers returned to the states as a result of adoption of a repeal recommendation.

Such a review may be initiated by the President, a Member of Congress, any federal, state, local, tribal, or regional government officer or employee, or any member of the public.

The bill requires the commission to report to Congress detailing its activities and recommendations for the repeal of statutes and the distribution of savings among the states.

The bill establishes procedures for the expedited congressional consideration of commission recommendations.
