o_klyuevaИнтересное заявление президента из сегодняшней (15 апреля) Телеконференции :
Конгресс самоизолировался, то есть фактически сбежал из Вашингтона без формального объявления recessing и Трамп пригрозил им что он в такой ситуации имеет право согласно конституции сделать назначения в федеральное правительство без одобрения конгресса.
Ну а также он может вообще этот сбежавший конгресс распустить.
President Donald Trump is threatening to invoke a never-before-used authority to push through dozens of executive-branch nominees while Congress remains out of Washington because of the coronavirus crisis.
... Trump threatened to formally adjourn Congress and install his nominees without a vote. Those nominees could potentially serve though the end of 2021.
... "If they don't act on getting these people approved — we need them anyway — but we especially need now because of the pandemic, we are going to do something ... I prefer not to do but I should do and I will do if I have to," Trump said at Wednesday's news conference.
... Under the Constitution, presidents have the authority to adjourn Congress but only under limited and very specific circumstances. Article II, Section 3 to the Constitution states that the president "may, on extraordinary Occasions, convene both Houses, or either of them, and in Case of Disagreement between them, with Respect to the Time of Adjournment, he may adjourn them to such Time as he shall think proper."
. . .
... But Trump and his senior aides believe congressional leaders are misusing their authority by allowing Congress to leave Washington without formally recessing. If Congress were to do so, and that recess were longer than 10 days, Trump could then make recess appointments.
