		<description><![CDATA[While we continue to believe the National Mediation Board (NMB) ruling upending nearly a century of precedent was an extraordinary form of payback to Big Labor bosses, the legislative branch has met its constitutional obligation to serve as a check on the executive,” said Fred Wszolek, spokesperson for the Workforce Fairness Institute (WFI).  <a href="http://www.biglaborbailout.com/2012/01/23/faa-agreement-defends-worker-rights/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Legislation introduced by Representative Jeff Landry titled the Executive Appointment Reform Act (EARA) deserves the serious consideration of Members of Congress as it states “payment for services may not be made to an individual appointed during a recess of the Senate to fill a vacancy in an existing office, if the vacancy existed while the Senate was in session and was by law required to be filled by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, and for other purposes.” On its own, this is noteworthy legislative language, but particular so since the Department of Justice’s Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) used the Pay Act in defense of its actions writing it “sets out the circumstances in which a recess appointee may be paid a salary from the Treasury.” <a href="http://www.biglaborbailout.com/2012/01/17/wfi-applauds-executive-appointment-reform-act-introduction/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
