Obama Wants To Shrink The Size Of Federal Government

President Obama will ask Congress or power to reorganize agencies and shrink the size of government.

Obama will call on Congress to give him a type of reorganizational power last held by a president when Ronald Reagan was in office. The Obama version would be a so-called consolidation authority allowing him to propose mergers that promise to save money and help consumers. The deal would entitle him to an up-or-down vote from Congress in 90 days.
