Wasserman Schultz is upbraiding the Republicans for never holding a hearing like this one. Asking Elwood about a bill that required the president to adhere to certain qualifications in appointing a FEMA administrator. Bush’s signing statement said that the executive branch “shall”—not might – interpret that section of the bill in a way different from what the Congress passed.
