Snooping on Congress is Tearson

Obama threatens vetoes of bills limiting power, By Justin Sink March 12, 2014

The White House on Wednesday threatened to veto a pair of Republican bills that would impose new limits on the president's executive powers.  The Enforce the Law Act, sponsored by Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.), would allow the House or Senate to file a lawsuit against the president for failing to “take care that the laws be faithfully executed.” Under the law, the challenges would go to a three-judge federal district court panel, with appeals fast-tracked to the Supreme Court. Gowdy told The Washington Times that President Obama's "disregard for the law" had "reached an unprecedented level from a constitutional perspective." This bill "will give Congress the authority to defend this branch of government as the framers and our fellow citizens would expect," he said.

 

But the White House said the administration "strongly opposes" the legislation, which it said violates the separation of powers enshrined in the Constitution.
