McCLURE 7m FROM: Brian Waidmann, Special Assistant BW for Legislative Affairs SUBJECT: Weekly confirmations report This is the weekly report summarizing the status of nominations waiting Senate confirmation. Last week the Senate confirmed 32 nominations. Those confirmed included Clarence Thomas (Appellate Court Judge), John Dunne (Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights) and all remaining political appointments at the Department of Defense. The Senate this week also confirmed nine nominations pending before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. There are currently 95 nominations pending in the Senate. Of these, 14 have been pending longer than two months. Of these, 11 comprise our "priority action list" and this week and next we are taking steps to expedite their confirmations. In addition, 14 nominations are in legislative clearance. This report is part of a system Fred McClure and Boyd Hollingsworth wanted implemented to speed Senate confirmations. That process, once fully implemented will include: advising prospective nominees of the Senate confirmation process and what steps they must take to expedite confirmation; making agency Congressional affairs directors accountable for achieving swift confirmation of their agencies nominations, beginning with the first day after a person has been nominated; surrounding controversial nominees with a coordinated team of experienced confirmation experts to handle problems before they arise; providing greater internal White House reporting (of which this report is part); developing recommended policies the White House should consider in handling nominations, particularly with respect to amount and type of information submitted to Congress. Attachment A lists lasts week's Senate confirmations. Attachment B lists nominees on our priority action list. Attachment C lists status of all nominees pending in the Senate. ATTACHMENT A Nominations confirmed the week of March 5, 1990: LaVerne Ausman Administrator, Farmers Home Administration Rhesa Barksdale US Circuit Judge for the Fifth Circuit Ronald Buckwalter US District Judge for Eastern District of Pennsylvania Gary Byrne Administrator of the Rural Electrification Administration Gerald Cann Assistant Secretary of the Navy Hilary Cleveland Commissioner, on the part of the US on the International Joint Commission, US and Canada Douglas Comer Deputy Commissioner of Patents and Trademarks John Dunne Assistant Attorney General Robert Farrand Ambassador to Papua New Guinea Ambassador to Solomon Islands and Republic of Vanuatu David Fields Director of the Office of Foreign Missions, with the rank of Ambassador Bradley Gordon Assistant Director of the United States Arms Control and Disarmament Agency Barry Harris Deputy Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration Charles Herzfeld Director of Defense Research and Engineering Arthur Hill President, Government National Mortgage Association Robert Hodges Judge, US Claims Court Robert Houk Public Printer -2- Susan Koch Assistant Director of the United States Arms Control and Disarmament Agency Donald Lee US District Judge for the Western District of Pennsylvania Philip Lochner Member, Securities and Exchange Commission Harry Manbeck Commissioner of Patents and Trademarks Carol Marshall Superintendent of the Mint San Francisco Larry Mellinger US Executive Director of the Inter- American Development Bank Michael Moodie Assistant Director of the United States Arms Control and Disarmament Agency Peter Nunez Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Steven Rhodes Ambassador to Zimbabwe Gerald Rosen US District Judge of for the Eastern District of Michigan Ronald Roskens Administrator of the Agency for International Development Jacqueline Schafer Assistant Secretary of the Navy Frank Sollars Member, of the Board of Directors of the National Consumer Cooperative Bank Clarence Thomas US Circuit Judge District District of Columbia Circuit Jacques Wiener US Circuit Judge for the Fifth Circuit Donald Yockey Deputy Under Secretary of Defense For Acquisition Withdrawal/Redaction Sheet (George Bush Library) Document No. Subject/Title of Document Date Restriction Class. and Type 01b.

SUNUNU FROM: C. BOYDEN GRAY SUBJECT: Convening the Senate In response to your question last week, attached is a memorandum from the Department of Justice regarding the President's authority to convene the Senate for the special purpose of considering presidential nominees. It concludes that the President does have the power to convene the Senate for that purpose during the August adjournment. Attachment U.S. Department of Justice Office of Legal Counsel Office of the Washington, D.C. 20530 Assistant Attorney General July 26, 1989 MEMORANDUM FOR C. BOYDEN GRAY Counsel to the President Re: The President's Authority to Convene the Senate The Constitution grants to the President the authority to "on extraordinary occasions, convene both Houses, or either of them." U.S. Const., Art. II, sec. 3. This is stated as a broad grant of authority, and it has, accordingly, been exercised almost fifty times by various Presidents. Most recently, President Truman convened both Houses of Congress to consider the questions of inflation and foreign aid. However, many of those times the President convened only the Senate, often for the purpose of considering whether to give its advice and consent to Presidential nominees. The most recent example was in 1933 when President Hoover convened the Senate so that it could consider President Roosevelt's nominees. To date, Presidents have used their special convening power only between sessions of Congress - - either calling Congress into session earlier than scheduled or calling it back into session after the normal end-of-session adjournment. However, the language and purpose of the clause make plain that the President has the power to convene Congress or either House during an intra-session break. The first President to convene the Senate was President Washington, who issued a "summons" to the Senate immediately following the adjournment of the First Congress. President Washington's summons recited that "certain matters touching the public good requir[e] that the Senate be convened Senate Executive Journal, Vol. I, pp. 79-84. While the Senate was convened President Washington submitted a substantial number of civil and military nominations. President Washington convened the Senate again on the day of his second inauguration, immediately following the adjournment of the Second Congress. During this period, President Washington submitted to the Senate three nominations. Id. at 138. After the end of the Third Congress, he convened the Senate to consider the Jay Treaty, during which time he also submitted to the Senate a number of nominations. The Senate was convened by the President many times throughout the 19th century, frequently for the purpose of confirming nominations. 1 In fact, Presidents uniformly convened the Senate for a special session that began on the day of their successor's inauguration. This was done because, prior to the Twentieth Amendment, one Congress would come to a close before the new President's inauguration. Had the preceding President not convened the Senate, it would not have been able to consider the new President's appointments until the start of its next session, which the Constitution sets as the first Monday of the following December. Although Presidents have traditionally convened the Senate when Congress has been on intersession adjournment, the President's power to "convene both Houses" is not limited to such circumstances. President Truman was advised, and we agree, that "[t]here is nothing in the Constitution to indicate, nor is there any basis for believing, that the President's power to convene the Congress on extraordinary occasions depends on the precise nature of the recess or adjournment, that is, whether the adjournment is sine die, until a day certain, or until the majority leaders of the Congress find it in the public interest to reassemble the two Houses. "2 Both the text of the Constitution and the purpose of the provision indicate that the President's constitutional power to convene either House extends to periods within sessions of Congress. His power is stated in the broadest possible terms; it is not limited only to when Congress is not in session. 3 This is 1 See, e.g., the Proclamations of June 15, 1858, 11 Stat. 798 (President Buchanan) ; March 5, 1859, 11 Stat. 799 (same) ; June 26, 1860, 12 Stat. 1257 (same) i February 28, 1863, 12 Stat. 1269 (President Lincoln) ; February 17, 1865, 13 Stat. 752 (same) ; March 30, 1867, 14 Stat. 821 (President Johnson) ; April 8, 1869, 16 Stat. 1125 (President Grant) ; April 20, 1871, 17 Stat. 949 (same) ; February 17, 1875, 18 Stat. 855; and March 2, 1903, 32 Stat. 2032 (President Roosevelt). 2 Memorandum for the Attorney General from George T. Washington, Assistant Solicitor General, October 17, 1947 (copy attached). 3 In fact, the Constitution expressly contemplates indeterminate periods of adjournment within a session. For instance, Article I states that "[n]either House, during the session of Congress, shall, without the consent of the other, adjourn for more than three days." U.S. Const., Art. I, sec. 5. Thus, because the President's power to convene Congress is unlimited, it applies to times when Congress is adjourned but in session. - 2 - appropriate to the purposes of the clause -- namely, to ensure that the President can summon Congress to Washington so that Congress and the President together may face a matter of national import. As Justice Story said in his Commentaries on the Constitution: The power to convene Congress on extraordinary occasions is indispensable to the proper operations, and even safety of the government. Occasions may occur in the recess of Congress requiring the government to ... provide for innumerable important exigencies J. Story, 3 Commentaries on the Constitution § 1556 (1833) Moreover, to contend the President lacks the power to convene when Congress is in session but adjourned is to contend that the President may not during time of war, for example, summon Congress to Washington if it chooses to remain absent. Such a contention would also allow Congress, by remaining formally in session but adjourned for most of the time, to defeat the President's constitutional power to convene Congress. In sum, the Senate has been convened many times and for many reasons. It has considered both nominations and treaties during those times. The Constitution places no limitation on when the President may convene either or both Houses. We therefore conclude that the President has the power to convene the Senate during the planned August adjournment. UPBan William P. Barr Assistant Attorney General Office of Legal Counsel - 3 -
