Magnolia SOUNDS OF THE SEASON Pharmacy closing By Mike Steely [email protected] Despite attempts to stay open, the Walgreens Phar- macy at the corner of Magno- lia Avenue and North Chestnut Street is closing December 31, leaving the neighborhood with the closest Walgreens store two miles away at Broadway and Asheville Highway. The closing of businesses along Magno- lia puts a burden on residents there and the loss of any busi- ness, especially a pharmacy, adds an additional hardship. East Knoxville resident Michael Covington told The Focus Tuesday that he under- stands Walgreens’ reasons. “From the research I’ve done, it’s a decision they almost had to make,” he said, referring to financial loss and the cor- poration’s business model. “But it’s inconvenient and leaves a void,” he added.

  • The Congressional Bureaucracy
    The Congressional Bureaucracy Jesse M. Cross Abbe R. Gluck CSAS Working Paper 20-23 First Branch, Second Thoughts — What Is Congress’s Proper Role in the Administrative State? Article The Congressional Bureaucracy Jesse M. Cross* & Abbe R. Gluck** Introduction Congress has a bureaucracy. Legal scholarship, judicial discourse, and doctrine about Congress and statutes have focused almost entirely on elected members of Congress and the ascertainability of their purported intentions about policymaking and statutory language. In recent years, we and others have broadened that perspective, with new scholarship about the on-the-ground realities of the congressional drafting process--including the essential role that staff plays in that process--and have argued the relevance of those realities for theory and doctrine.1 Here we go deeper. This Article goes beyond our previous accounts of partisan committee staff, congressional counsels, and other select staff offices to introduce the broader concept of what we call Congress’s bureaucracy. The congressional bureaucracy is the collection of approximately a dozen nonpartisan offices that, while typically unseen by the public and * Assistant Professor, University of South Carolina School of Law. ** Professor of Law and Faculty Director, Solomon Center for Health Law and Policy, Yale Law School.
