Nuss interviews Professor James Ridgway about the practical effects of an ambiguous ambiguity doctrine as promulgated by Chevron, using Veteran’s Law as a case example. This discussion ranges from a discussion of the history of Veterans Law, a critical examination of the motivators within administrative agencies which may contribute to ineffectiveness and court challenges, and theorizing about how iterative learning may improve agency rulemaking.
