Senators Clash Over OMB Line In Hearings
Washington observers report Sen. Sam Nunn challenging the practice of requiring witnesses to present an OMB approved line. OMB official Daniel Kearney defended routine review saying it prevents personal opinions from leaking as administration policy. Nunn argued hearings lose frankness if every statement must carry the administration’s imprimatur. Charles Percy added that Congress never intended such a mockery of executive branch independence.
