Need a freeper lawyer but it appears to me Rubin was prohibited from making that phone call.

TITLE 18
PART I
CHAPTER 11
Sec. 207. - Restrictions on former officers, employees, and elected officials of the executive and legislative branches

Clinton' s EO took effect at noon on the day he left office so that doesn't apply but the 1978 one year ban seems as if it does. Did Rubin duck out before Clinton or did he leave the same day?

I believe he left early but I'm not sure the day

Did you catch the 2 year part??

Hey Howlin & Miss Marple .. do you remember the date Rubin left??

[thucydides]

Rubin left Treasury in early 1999, and was succeeded by Larry Summers, then Undersecretary of the Treasury. So I don't think it was within one year.
