Did you know that if you are a federal contractor and are on the GSA schedule, you will be asked to report on your sustainability efforts? This is included in the RFP process, though it is not currently a requirement.
While the future of cybersecurity is unclear, the national conversation has been jumpstarted and brought to the fore with the mention of the issue in the State of the Union address.
We have paralyzed government in a time of crisis. This is your second term. It is time for bold leadership. This is a battle you can win. Go for it, and a grateful nation will forever be in your debt.
On Monday of last week, Rep. Steve Stockman (R-Texas) announced that if President Barack Obama attempted to enact new gun violence prevention measures...
No, our problem is neither that our guns are too sophisticated for our own good or that we don't have enough of them. Our problem is simpler and deeper. It is our "gun culture" and guns, period.
Not being a psychiatrist, I don't really understand why the president's fairly modest efforts at gun policy reform seem to have utterly deranged some of his political opponents. But talk of impeachment in connection with his gun-related "executive orders" is, to put it mildly, ridiculous.
As dangerous as guns are, it is equally dangerous to our civil liberties if reporting provisions in laws, like the NY SAFE Act, are written broadly.
Former Attorney General Michael Mukasey, who served under President George W. Bush, said he finds Obama's executive orders "distasteful," but not unco...
What are you hunting that requires the need of a semi-automatic weapon -- an instrument used for military warfare? This defies common sense and it should be central during the gun debate. This kind of extremism is part of the reason I do not have an NRA membership.
Vice President Biden is on the right track in finally proposing an executive order banning these weapons and high-capacity magazines. I commend him and President Obama for this. I only wish that they had implemented such an order last term.
The phrase "war on women" was uttered frequently during the recently concluded election season. But the real war is ensuring they enjoy the same rights as men: to safety, security, and equality, something violence and sexual assault attempts to rob from them.
When I called for such an executive order earlier in the year, I was castigated on the right by those who claimed I would be taking away their 2nd Amendment rights. And I was castigated on the left by those who said I would hurt President Obama's chances of winning reelection.
The definition and use of classified information, and the public's right to hear it, is proving to be one of the most important issues arising in pre-trial hearings in this historic September 11th terrorism prosecution.

Likewise, President Obama's supporters might wish to also bear in mind that powers vested in one Executive are available to, and invariably extended by the next. Do they really want any president to be able to indefinitely detain vaguely-defined "suspects" at his or her sole discretion?
President Obama has said that he would rather be a good one-term president, than a mediocre two-term one. If he really means that then why doesn't he issue an executive order banning assault weapons and high-capacity gun magazines?
So, why was such fanfare made of this two year provision? Was it the EAD? Was this election year politics? Is this a peace offering by President Obama for not tackling promised immigration reform during his first two years in office?
This seems like little more than a political ploy by a president seeking reelection who's faced increasing pressure from undocumented youth to do something, pressure which ultimately resulted in various of his campaign offices shutting down.
Governor Andrew Cuomo issued an executive order Thursday creating a health care exchange in New York, an online marketplace where consumers can shop f...
The time has come for President Obama to sign an executive order banning sexual orientation and gender identity discrimination by federal contractors.
