A chiral gauge-invariant lattice fermion action is derived from a chiral guage-variant Wilson fermion action without change in its partion function. By use of this action it is shown that anomalous gauge theories in four dimensions are renormalizable. An application to the chiral Schwinger model shows that it is unitary for a range of Wilson parameter r.
