In cases of domestic subversive investigations, compliance with the Fourth Amendment s warrant provision is required. The President cannot authorize domestic surveillance without prior judicial approval. These Fourth Amendment freedoms cannot properly be guaranteed if domestic security surveillance may be conducted solely within the discretion of the Executive Branch. Even Congress cannot exempt the President from warrant requirements in protection of domestic security [86]. [Pg.259]

Congress and the Executive Branch can also use the Supreme Court s decisions about the admission of expert testimony in courts as a starting point for establishing standards for consideration of experts and their opinions.

After Sputnik I and II were launched, the Congress set up special committees to consider national needs in relation to space. In conjunction with the executive branch, these committees created the present National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The importance of these activities was signaled by the unprecedented heading of the two committees by the Majority Leaders and the Minority Leaders of each House. In the summer of 1958 after the enactment of the Space Act, both Houses moved to change their rules to set up new standing committees to be concerned with space. This is not a common event, for the last time that was done was two thirds of a century earlier in 1892 (the Interior and Insular Affairs Committees). [Pg.86]

We have a sort of arrest-of-life in our policy machinery as we all wait and wonder whatever happened to the Cabinet study of government policy changes that would stimulate Innovation. If there is policy movement anywhere, it is occurring in the Congress at the initiative of House committees and people like Adlal Stevenson, who will soon give up the Senate seat. On the other hand, there is unmistakable concern in the Executive Branch to find a credible policy route — and a plitically workable one — to deal with the Issues. [Pg.231]

The traditional risk analysis performed by NASA on ITA identified about one hundred risks. The more rigorous, structured STAMP-based analysis—done independently and without any knowledge of the results of the NASA process-identified about 250 risks, all the risks identified by NASA plus additional ones. A small part of the difference was related to the consideration by the STAMP group of more components in the safety control structure, such as the NASA administrator. Congress, and the Executive Branch (White House). There is no way to determine whether the other additional risks identified by the STAMP-based process were simply missed in the NASA analysis or were discarded for some reason. [Pg.239]

Government provides many different opportunities for employment in intellectual property law. These opportunities may be with federal agencies such as the USPTO, government technology transfer offices such as at The National Institutes of Health (NIH), as well as Congress and the executive branch. [Pg.128]
