Congressional Commissions, Committees, Boards, & Groups - Matthew E Glassman - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Congressional Commissions, Committees, Boards, & Groups - Matthew E Glassman - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Over the past several decades, Congress, by statute, has established a wide array of commissions, boards, and advisory bodies to provide assistance in meeting various legislative, investigative, and administrative responsibilities. These entities are generally temporary and created to serve specific functions, such as studying a discreet policy area or performing one-time or recurring administrative tasks. The majority of these congressional bodies provide that Members of Congress, particularly the leadership, be intimately involved in the appointment process, either through direct service on a commission, or by appointing or recommending candidates for membership. This book examines the range of alternative membership appointment schemes exhibited by more than 75 such bodies currently in existence.

Recess Appointments - - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Recess Appointments - - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Under the Constitution (Article II, Section 2, Clause 2), the President and the Senate share the power to make appointments to high-level policy-making positions in federal departments, agencies, boards, and commissions. Generally, the President nominates individuals to these positions, and the Senate must confirm them before he can appoint them to office. The Constitution also provides an exception to this process. When the Senate is in recess, the President may make a temporary appointment, called a recess appointment, to any such position without Senate approval (Article II, Section 2, Clause 3). This book provides a legal overview of the practice and responses to frequently asked questions.

Internet Pharmacies - - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Internet Pharmacies - - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

The Internet offers consumers a convenient method for purchasing drugs that is sometimes cheaper than buying from traditional brick-and-mortar pharmacies. According to a recent FDA survey, nearly 1 in 4 adult U.S. Internet consumers have purchased prescription drugs online. However, many Internet pharmacies are fraudulent enterprises that offer prescription drugs without a prescription and are not appropriately licensed. These rogue Internet pharmacies may sell drugs that are expired, improperly labelled, or are counterfeits of other drugs. A number of federal and state agencies share responsibility for administering and enforcing laws related to Internet pharmacies, including state boards of pharmacy, FDA, DOJ, CBP, and ICE. The Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act directed the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to report on problems with Internet pharmacies. This book identifies (1) how rogue sites violate federal and state laws, (2) challenges federal agencies face in investigating and prosecuting operators, (3) efforts to combat rogue Internet pharmacies, and (4) efforts to educate consumers about the risks of purchasing prescription drugs online.

Congressional Liaison Offices - Carla Berry - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Congressional Liaison Offices - Carla Berry - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

This book presents a list of about 150 congressional liaison offices for those interested in placing telephone calls and addressing correspondence to government agencies. In each case, the information was supplied by the agency itself and is current as of the date of publication. Entries are arranged alphabetically in three sections: legislative branch; executive branch; and agencies, boards, and commissions. When looking for a particular agency, use the index at the back of this document because the organisational affiliation of each agency may not be readily apparent. If only the telephone number is needed, it is given in the index to save the user time. Specific telephone numbers for correspondence, publications, and fax transmissions have been provided for each applicable agency. When using fax, it is important to include the entire mailing address on a cover sheet, as many of the listed fax machines are not directly located in the liaison offices. For the convenience of the user, websites are included as well. A number of agencies include their e-mail address.
