Orrin Hatch actually said...

The idea that a President has the authority to tell the Senate when it is in or out of this or that sort of recess is astounding.

I cannot say much about it because of 6103 Authority, but we are going to get to the bottom of it.

Applying that discretion across the board to entire categories of individuals has the same effect of changing the law itself.

The most important dimension of the Attorney General's function is to advise the President on the scope of his Executive powers and duties.
