The Securities and Exchange Commission late Friday announced that it has joined a U.S. Department of Justice legal brief in support of the Public Company Accounting' Oversight Board defense against a lawsuit challenging the PCAOB's constitutionality.

Filed in February, the lawsuit led by the Free Enterprise Fund, a conservative nonprofit group, challenges the constitutionality of the PCAOB, the accounting industry overseer created by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

何が問題なのかと言うと、

The lawsuit, which notes that the PCAOB is not named by or removable by the President, also cites the Article II provisions stating that "executive power shall be vested in the President" and "he shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed."

ということです。
