Common Cause and OTI called this failure a “dereliction of duty” and urged the agency to correct its past mistakes. The comments also...

President Trump’s Removal of Inspector General Glenn Fine Is An Affront To Transparency & Accountability

We deserve a government accountable and transparent to the people, but President Trump is once again acting as if he is above the law. Trump’s decision to remove Glenn Fine, the leader of an independent panel of inspectors general providing oversight of the coronavirus relief stimulus, is a corrupt power grab. Without strong oversight,  the public will not have the confidence that their hard-earned money actually serves the public over special interests.

The FCC has no authority to revoke broadcast licenses for airing political advertisements critical of the President’s actions. More importantly, the President cannot direct the FCC, an independent agency, to take this action."
