    VETERANS LAW JOURNAL A QUARTERLY PUBLICATION OF THE COURT OF APPEALS FOR VETERANS CLAIMS BAR ASSOCIATION Winter 2012-2013 A New Judge Joins the CAVC The CAVC’s case load has roughly doubled since the late 1990s to roughly 4,600 Wincases per year. As a result, the CAVC has had one of the highest, if not the highest, case loads per active judge of any federal appellate court in the country. In response, in 2008, the CAVC was authorized to expand --- at least temporarily --- to nine judges, as of January 2010. However, the authorization to increase the number of CAVC judges, which was part of the Veterans Benefits Improvement Act of 2008, was set to expire at the end of 2012 if the positions were not filled. Although the CAVC grew to eight judges with the confirmations of Judges Coral Wong Pietsch and Margaret Bartley in May 2012, no other nomination was pending when the Veterans Law Journal last went to press.

  • MAGA Hangover: Trump Administration Independent Agency Leaders Have Held Onto 24 Key Posts Under the Biden Administration and 104 Executive Agency Appointments
    MAGA Hangover: Trump Administration Independent Agency Leaders Have Held Onto 24 Key Posts Under The Biden Administration And 104 Executive Agency Appointments SUMMARY: Following the outgoing administration’s “quiet push to salt federal agencies with Trump loyalists,” an Accountable.US review has found that, as of March 1, 2021, at least 24 Trump administration independent executive agency leaders who are uniquely positioned to undermine President Biden’s agenda have remained in government positions following the transition from the Trump to Biden administrations. This includes at least five figures who were involved with voting issues during the 2020 election, five figures in the labor mediation sphere, two figures in the Social Security Administration, and two questionable figures involved in setting energy market regulations. These figures include: • Louis DeJoy—The embattled Postmaster General accused of undermining mail service to help sway the 2020 election for Trump, for which he was sued by multiple advocacy groups, has remained on under the Biden Administration. • Donald Palmer—An Election Assistance Commission Commissioner who attempted to promote in- person voting during the COVID-19 pandemic, worked to undermine open and fair elections as a Virginia State election official, and was named among “voter fraud conspiracy theorists” by a civil rights group for assisting Trump’s 2016 voter fraud commission, has remained on under the Biden Administration. • James "Trey" Trainor—A Federal Election Commissioner with a rich history of pushing racial gerrymandering and noted opposition of campaign finance regulation, has remained on under the Biden Administration. • Allen Dickerson—A Federal Election Commission Commissioner who repeatedly fought against campaign finance regulations and was the top paid employee of a Koch-funded think tank, has remained on under the Biden Administration.
