not really that great

Only affects federal govt job and contractors hired by federal govt.

Still its a step. If nobody does anything that makes the press go nuts... then perhaps it could mean a positive example for future legislation.

Then again what President would rescind that order because that would be like saying... okay from now on... lets round them up and beat on them.

Dayna.

loopholes

As usual their is loopholes and I bet that they did not address sub contractors which is done repeatedly by companies that contract with the federal government just to get around federal and state labor laws.

It is a long road ahead but I will finally become who I should be.

big win

not to say this is not a big win but still long way to go and until actual court cases come up then companies most likely will ignore the executive order.

Please Be Advised

Please be advised that Obama can only do this much without legislation or SCOTUS opinion. Otherwise, he would be breaking the law and could be impeached.
