Government reform requires Congress to constantly investigate the special interests for whom it entered a deal to ensure those interests are still advancing the bargain between private interests and public ones. By aggressively investigating to ensure its deal is being preserved, it can more aggressively police regulatory agencies. For instance, when a congressional investigation determines that a digital token issuer is not selling securities, the Securities and Exchange Commission would be subject to congressional oversight if it asserted its jurisdiction to investigate the digital token issuer for violating the securities laws. That is how congressional oversight should work.
