Labrador: Congress gives up authority
In his latest newsletter, Congressman Raul Labrador comments:
Among the dirty little secrets I’ve learned as your congressman is that Congress willingly surrenders its constitutional authority to the executive branch. The result is a vastly expanded federal bureaucracy that controls decisions that should be made by Congress.
This attack on liberty isn’t new, though President Obama has refined executive overreach with his actions regulating the economy, environment, immigration and even public restrooms. It’s well past time for Congress to reassert its constitutional authority. More here.
Question: Do you agree/disagree with Congressman Labrador that Congress has willingly surrendered its constitutional authority to the executive branch?
