Here is the June 2025 Edition of the most-downloaded recent papers (those announced in the last 60 days) from SSRN’s U.S. Administrative Law eJournal, which is edited by Bill Funk. Lots of great new administrative law scholarship to read this summer! I see that the Virginia Law Review is publishing two of the papers from this SSRN reading list. Another is coming out in the NYU Law Review‘s administrative law symposium issue (my contribution with Andrew Hammond is available here). For law review editors seeking to fill out the volume, there are some excellent articles in this reading list.

1. The Chadha Presidency by Josh Chafetz
2. Taming the Shadow Docket by E. Garrett West (Virginia Law Review forthcoming)
3. The CLARITY Act: Explaining and Analyzing How Congress Will Transform Digital Asset Markets by Seth Oranburg (Review of Banking and Financial Law forthcoming)
4. The Morality of Legality by Cass R. Sunstein
5. The State-Law Origins of the Appellate Review Model by Fred Halbhuber
6. The Practice of Executive Constitutionalism by Conor Clarke & Daniel Epps (Virginia Law Review forthcoming)
7. The Gray Area: Finding Implicit Delegation to Agencies after Loper Bright by Matthew Stephenson
8. New Challenges for Federal Regulations: Executive Branch Responses by Richard L. Revesz (NYU Law Review forthcoming)
9. Is Vacatur Unconstitutional? by Jameson Payne & GianCarlo Canaparo  
10. Commission Quorums by Nicholas Bednar & Todd Phillips 

For more on why SSRN and this eJournal are such terrific resources for administrative law scholars and practitioners, check out my first post on the subject here. You can check out the full rankings, updated daily, here.

Thanks to my terrific research assistant Drake Marsaly for helping put together this monthly post. I’ll report back in September with the next edition.
