66. There is one Act of Congress, circa 1952, requiring that the President
issue a Proclamation on a day convenient for him. There is another Act of Congress, some time in the 1980's, requiring that the day be a certain Thursday in May (first? second? third? I forgot which).

The case may be appealed.

The President is about to issue a Proclamation.

WARNING:

If you're interested in thinking about separation of powers, either alone, or in connection with everyone's oaths to preserve, protect and defend the Constiution, all this could cause your head could explode.
