DOJ tried to argue the directives to various agencies to reduce their work forces were merely guidelines, not directives. Court wasn’t buying it.

This is fucking retarded. Everyone agrees that an agency head can independently decide his agency is too large and order cuts, but if POTUS orders cuts across government it’s unlawful?

It’s pretty straightforward actually…

“The President’s power, if any, to issue [an executive] order must stem either from an act of Congress or from the Constitution itself.” Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer, 343 U.S. 579, 585 (1952). “Administrative agencies are creatures of statute.” Nat’l Fed’n of Indep. Bus. v. Dep’t of Labor, Occupational Safety & Health Admin., 595 U.S. 109, 117 (2022) (per curiam). Article I of the Constitution confers the legislative power exclusively on Congress. U.S. Const. art. I, § 1; see Myers v. United States, 272 U.S. 52, 129 (1926) (finding that Congress “under its legislative power is given the establishment of offices, [and] the determination of their functions and jurisdiction”). Accordingly, “Congress has plenary control over the salary, duties, and even existence of executive offices.” Free Enter. Fund, 561 U.S. at 500. “There is no provision in the Constitution that authorizes the President to enact, to amend, or to repeal statutes.” Clinton v. City of New York, 524 U.S. 417, 438 (1998). Instead, the President is tasked with “tak[ing] Care that the Laws be faithfully executed.” U.S. Const. art. II, § 3.

Did Congress say that HUD is never allowed to shrink in size? That underperforming 10% of employees cannot be cut?

No, but they did say that it exists, and they’re the only ones who can say it no longer exists. Same with DOE. As noted, agencies are a creature of statute. Only Congress has the authority to terminate them, and they can do so against POTUS’s will.

He’s not terminating the agencies he’s just reducing headcount. There is no statute saying HHS must be 80k employees.
