An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Strengthen checks and balances on presidential appointees

1 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

Please introduce and support legislation to modernize the Federal Vacancies Reform Act of 1998. Closing loopholes in this law and enforcing the practice of Senate confirmation of acting department heads will preserve common-sense limits on presidential appointees.
