Kasich yet again makes a Cabinet appointment to an agency House Republicans have pledged to eliminate.

Kasich next Cabinet appointment was announced yesterday.  It’s for the Department of Administrative Services.  Yep, another agency that the House Republicans have pledged to eliminate through consolidation.

How else can you interpret this but to say that Kasich has no intention to adopt House Bill 25—the House Republican’s signature government reform/budget cutting measure?  After all, why would he be making his early appointment announcements in agencies specifically targeted by Republicans to eliminate?
