Congress Eyes Reorganization Bill Amid Budget Fights
Washington press reports that Congress plans a new push on a government reorganization bill, hoping to limit presidential control while preserving key powers. Three main sticking points drive debate: Congress must approve changes by the Executive, abolition of the comptroller general and preaudit duties, and dissolving the Civil Service Commission with duties moved to a central administrator. A compromise could keep the Civil Service Commission intact and name an administrator to oversee changes and enforce rules. Senator Byrd warns reductions may drop the proposed new Department of Public Welfare.
