EEOC Moving Toward Insufficient Members For Quorum

National Law Journal yesterday reported that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission is moving toward a scenario in which it will not have a quorum. Currently the 5-member Commission has two vacancies. Also Chair Chai Feldblum's current term is drawing to an end.  Feldblum's renomination and nominations for the two vacant positions have been pending in the Senate for months.  Utah Senator Mike Lee has blocked a vote on Feldblum's renomination because he opposes her advocacy of LGBTQ rights. Meanwhile, Daniel Gade, a nominee for one of the other vacancies says he has withdrawn and accepted another position, though his nomination is still listed on the Senate's executive calendar.
