Making structural changes to Federal Agencies

I believe one of the biggest problems with the Federal government, is that veto power is not given to the people whom Federal agencies regulate. This means that rule making bodies like the EPA, should be able to have their rules effectively neutralized, by some kind of means (such as a petition), made by those affected by their rules. (Remember, America is supposed to be the land of the self-governed.) If for example, a regulations making federal agency like the EPA feels strongly about its rules, it should be able to submit its rules to Congress, to pass them as a set of laws. These rules should never be allowed to be packaged into other legislation. They must be stand-alone legislations, so that Congress can clearly scrutinize them, and decide on whether to pass them, based on feedback from multiple parties.

The above changes would apply to agencies like the EPA, the Department of Education, the FDA, etc. It would make these agencies more accountable to the people, and mitigate abuse on the part of the Left. Environmental policies by the Left, for example, would largely collapse, as the Left would not be able to make end runs around the will of the people, by taking over these agencies, and passing the regulations they want, with near impunity.
