This was done on March 18th. It was a bill not an executive order.

It was determined that the usual time for transition between November elections and Jan 20th was not nearly long enough.

President Obama has signed into law legislation intended to improve the changeover from one president to another

Excellent. Just goes to show everyone here how much we all jump to conclusions without knowing the facts... Let’s make that a lesson....

Though I have to say that I can’t imagine obozo even cares how smooth the transition is.

To: Spunky; everyone
I tried to give you an out, but you're determined to be argumentative, wholly stubborn and content to pass along misinformation.

I know you thought you had me nailed, but in your glee you jumped the proverbial gun, which is almost always the pitiful result that befalls spiteful posters like you, who do not bother to thoroughly read articles and extensions.






Senate Approves Changes to Presidential Transition Process - the date, March, 8, 2016

WASHINGTON — The Senate gave final approval on Tuesday to legislation aimed at smoothing the presidential transition process by directing federal agencies to begin high-level preparations six months before the November election.

The bill, which was approved unanimously by a voice vote, also lengthens the amount of time for which transition services can be provided by the federal government to 180 days after the president’s inauguration. Previously, such services were limited to 30 days.
