President Obama has issued waivers allowing two appointees who were formally registered lobbyists to work for his administration.
The waivers ensure the two appointees can work for the administration under his executive order on ethics, which was intended to reform the revolving door between K Street and the government.
The waivers were provided for Jocelyn Frye, director of policy and projects in the Office of the First Lady, and Cecilia Munoz, director of intergovernmental affairs in the executive office of the president. The two waivers were announced on the White House blog Tuesday evening, which said the exceptions were granted under a “public interest” exemption of the executive order on ethics.
Munoz was a senior vice president for the National Council of La Raza, where she supervised all legislative and advocacy activities on the state and local levels. Munoz was heavily involved in the immigration battles in Congress in recent years, and is now a principal liaison to the Hispanic community for the administration.
Before joining the administration, Frye served as general counsel at the National Partnership for Women & Families, where she directed the group’s workplace fairness program. The White House blog said Frye, an expert on employment law, had worked with federal agencies as a technical expert, and had testified before Congress and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission on federal enforcement of employment discrimination laws.

please tell me this office has nothing to do with the program that lets cities hold illegals until ICE shows up to collect and report them?
America...can this Republic take four years of this?
What’s the point in having a rule if you just keep making exceptions to it?
Oh, that’s right, it’s only the intention that matters.
Can someone tell me who actually had or has the most ethical administration in US history, Slick Willy (who gave the ChiComs missile-guidance technology) or Obammie the Commie (who is intentionally destroying what is left of the free-market system in the US)?
Ping!
His allegiances (past and present) speak volumes about his intent.
“America...can this Republic take four years of this?”
Nope, what is left won’t be a Republic, of that I’m sure.
Now that we’re all socialists (thank you Newsweek), I think it’s great now that we all can lie - say one thing and do another - and frankly it’s going to be a big relief to not have to pay taxes anymore...
The Democrat Culture of Corruption marches on.
