Congress Cedes Constitutional Power To Obama As Part Of Debt Deal
The Constitution gives Congress the power of the purse, but according to number
of media sources, last night's debt-ceiling deal just ceded some of this power
to Barack Obama...
(Breitbart) Capitol Hill talk regarding the Senate deal apparently includes a
provision that would take away the Congress’ power to increase the debt ceiling.
According to Politico, it looks like the buzz appears to be true.: The plan includes a proposal offered by McConnell in the 2011 debt ceiling crisis that allows Congress to disapprove of the debt ceiling increase, which means lawmakers will formally vote on whether to reject a debt ceiling increase until Feb. 7. Obama can veto that legislation if it passes. If Congress fails as expected to gather a two-thirds majority to override the veto, the debt ceiling would be raised. |
