New Conservative Group Vows To Stop Clinton's Governing Excesses
By Jim Burns CNS Senior Staff Writer September 12, 2000
(CNSNews.com) - President Clinton has been governing too much by
executive orders, and a new group wants to stop that practice.
The American Civil Rights Union, based in San Diego, CA has begun
operations and vows to fight against the Clinton administration
issuing more regulations and executive orders.
The group also vows to keep the federal government within its
constitutional power.
Speaking at a Capitol Hill conference on the environment and
politics, sponsored by Frontiers of Freedom, Robert Carleson,
President of the American Civil Rights Union told CNSNews.com his
group "will be a constructive alternative to the ACLU (American
Civil Liberties Union)."
When Clinton finds he can't get things through Congress, simply
does it by executive order, and then he directs his departments
to issue regulations that are, in effect, in place of
legislation," Carleson said.
However, Carleson believes the United States Supreme Court is
catching on to Clinton's ways.
"Fortunately, the Supreme Court is starting to declare some of
these regulations beyond the scope of the authority of the
executive branch, such as the Environmental Protection Agency
regulations which were recently thrown out by the United States
Supreme Court.
"But this does not stop the administration from going ahead and
issuing more regulations and more executive orders because the
people that are adversely affected by these are little people,"
Carleson said.
The little people Carleson referred to are "the people that own
farms. They are people who want to use the recreational areas.
They are people who don't have the resources to fight these
regulations and these executive orders in the court."
It is for those reasons and others, according to Carleson, the
American Civil Rights Union was founded.
"We're not only going to defend rights of (Boy) Scouts to speak
and have their freedom of association, but we're also going to be
fighting to protect the property rights which are being taken
away in violation of the Fifth Amendment, which is the taking of
private property for public use without just compensation,"
Carleson said.
Carleson added that his group will help defend citizens when the
federal government violates the Tenth Amendment of the
Constitution, which he believes the federal government does often
by overriding the power of state and local jurisdictions on many
issues.
The American Civil Rights Union will be based in San Diego. Among
those on its policy board are former Reagan Attorney General Ed
Meese and former Nixon Attorney General and one time Supreme
Court nominee Robert Bork.
"We're going to embark on a long range effort to start to defend
all of the rights that are in the Bill of Rights. We're going to
have as our first priority opposing the ACLU where they are
trying to restrict people's rights," Carleson said.
Carleson stated that the group will have offices in both San
Diego and Washington, DC.
Carleson, himself, is a public policy and management consultant
in San Diego. He served in then-Governor Ronald Reagan
administration while Reagan was Governor of California in the
1960's.
