An article by Jeffrey Scott Shapiro in The New American discusses the litigation we co-counseled with Lawrence J. Straw, Esquire, to prevent the unilateral implementation of SALT II Treaty: “During the Reagan presidency, the Conservative Caucus unsuccessfully challenged an executive order in U.S. District Court that was dismissed for lack of standing. The order allowed President Reagan to unilaterally implement the SALT II treaty with the U.S.S.R., which the Senate refused to ratify.”
We discussed this case in our CATO Policy Analysis on Executive Orders.
And we discussed this case in our testimony before the House Rules Committee’s Subcommittee on Legislative and Budget Process.
