• Supreme Court Says Obama’s “Recess” NLRB Appointments Unconstitutional


“In a unanimous decision, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down three of President Barack Obama’s recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).

”The high court, ruling June 26, 2014, said that the appointments were unconstitutional because they were made during a three-day recess in pro forma Senate sessions, and ‘three days is too short a time to bring a recess within the scope of the [U.S. Constitution’s Recess Appointments] Clause.’”
