EXCERPT:
MELBER: "In a legal unit we looked at every single bill that's been signed. Yes, there have been 28 total, but most of them have been agency regulations from the Obama Administration that were basically trying to nullify that. Another 9 were ceremonial bills, naming federal buildings, for example. Only six are laws of any legislative substance. The Women in Entrepreneurship Act, for example, and most of those don’t have any major funding or policy reform attached to them. By any legal standard it’s a very, very thin legislative record, so thin as to be difficult to see would be one way to put it."
