'The executive branch will construe this subsection of the bill not to abrogate any constitutional privilege.' Obama Issues Signing Statement After Creating Financial Investigative Panel 20 May 2009 President Obama on Wednesday signed legislation aimed at curbing financial fraud in the mortgage and other industries, including a provision that created an independent panel to investigate the root causes of the nation's economic downturn. This one would have subpoena power; its work would be independent of Congress. But after signing the bill, the White House issued what is called a signing statement by Mr. Obama, which includes this advisory to agencies about the financial panel's potential reach... In other words, the president is reserving the right to claim executive privilege if the commission seeks information or documents that the White House considers to be beyond the bounds of public information and/or privileged communications and negotiations within the executive branch.
