Obama bypassing Senate confirmation to appoint pro-union guys to the National Labor Relations Board has been ruled UNCONSTITUTIONAL in a unanimous D.C. Federal Court Opinion
from Fox News:
WASHINGTON – President Obama violated
the Constitution when he bypassed the Senate to fill vacancies on a
labor relations panel, a federal appeals court panel ruled Friday.
A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit
said that Obama did not have the power to make three recess
appointments last year to the National Labor Relations Board.
The unanimous decision is an embarrassing setback for the president,
who made the appointments after Senate Republicans spent months blocking
his choices for an agency they contended was biased in favor of unions.
The ruling also throws into question Obama's recess appointment of
Richard Cordray to head the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
Cordray's appointment, also made under the recess circumstance, has been
challenged in a separate case.
