my bill would amend the appointment processes for three key legislative branch positions - the Librarian of Congress, the Comptroller General and the Director of the Government Publishing Office (GPO) - to provide that appointment and removal of their leaders are the exclusive purview of Congress. ... Thus, my proposal would remove the President from the appointment process for all these positions and change it to a commission structure. ... This bill would also codify Congress’ exclusive authority to remove the Librarian of Congress and the GPO Director.

Case introduced legislation to shift appointment and removal authority for the Librarian of Congress, Comptroller General, and GPO Director away from the President and to Congress.
