“In an informational document about the executive order, shared with the Washington Post, White House officials referred to ‘so called independent agencies,’ citing the FTC, FCC and SEC as examples of agencies over which Trump is seeking to exert more control. A White House official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss the objectives of the new executive order said it aims to reign in ‘rogue agencies’.
“These agencies issue rules and regulations that cost billions of dollars and implicate some of the most controversial policy matters, and they do so without the review of the democratically elected President”
“They also spend American tax dollars and set priorities without consulting the President, while setting their own performance standards.”
