GPO Facing Formidable Challenges
To demonstrate its conviction, the Bush administration advertised for competitive bids to print four of the five volumes of the president's 2004 budget, a job handled by GPO for more than 80 years.
In response, a General Accounting Office official penned a letter stating that "no funds are available to pay for the printing of the president's budget other than through the Government Printing Office." Bypassing GPO could lead to firing, jail time or repayment of the printing costs, the letter said.
