EEOC at full strength
January 03, 2006 by Ross Runkel at LawMemo
As of today the EEOC is back to full strength of five Members. Christine Griffin was sworn in. EEOC press release.
That's good, but here's my complaint: The NLRB should also have five Members, but the powers that be in the Senate have not seen fit to confirm the President's nominations. In addition, we still await Senate confirmation of a new General Counsel.
As a result, the NLRB is working with only three Members and an Acting General Counsel.
With all due respect to the EEOC, my view is that the NLRB has a greater need for a fully-staffed Board.
The President has made his nominations. Now it's the Senate's turn.
As usual, nobody in Washington listens to me.
