Administrative Law: Licenses & Permits Federal and state agencies regulate social, economic and political interaction among individuals, businesses, and other entities. Agencies often issue licenses for various purposes, including to allow businesses to sell a certain type of item (e.g., alcoholic beverages, tobacco-related products, various drugs), or to allow an individual to work in a certain profession (e.g., licensing to become a doctor, lawyer, contractor) For example the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control is a California state agency that regulates alcoholic beverages. Similarly, the California Department of Public Health regulates the sale of

tobacco and related products. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) regulates, among other
things, the issuance of permits to businesses to accept food stamps.

Businesses and individuals who encounter state and federal agencies often find themselves lost in red tape, a maze of administrative regulation, and government bureaucracy.
