OMB Printing Proposal Is Controversial

Cooper disagrees. "The GPO's procurement system is not a perfect system and it has some serious problems. The GPO's customer is the executive branch and not everyone is uniformly satisfied with the GPO's work. There are a number of dissatisfied agencies and, over the years, they've gained waivers to go outside of the GPO. So, no, the GPO does not have all of the government work," he says.
