Biden May Sue GSA Because It’s Not Obeying the Media’s Decision of Who Won
President-elect Joe Biden’s transition team is threatening legal action over the Trump administration’s refusal to formally begin the transition process – as President Trump carried out a post-election purge of agency heads and regulators in the bureaucracy.
Biden’s team is setting its sights on a federal agency’s delay in recognizing the Democrat’s victory over President Donald Trump in last week’s election.
The General Services Administration (GSA) normally recognizes a presidential candidate when it becomes clear who has won an election so that a transition of power can begin.
But the Trump-nominated official who runs the agencies has refused to assess the election being decided in Joe Biden’s favor, despite TV networks calling the race for Biden on Saturday after he secured enough electoral votes to secure the presidency.
The law does not clearly spell out when the GSA must act, but Biden transition officials say their victory is clear and a delay is not justified, even as Trump refuses to concede defeat. (Read more from “Biden May Sue GSA Because It’s Not Obeying the Media’s Decision of Who’s President” HERE)
