Well, Congressmen also are mostly interested in mass complaints since
that's where they get their votes. I doubt many would write to their
Congressmen regarding the incompetency of the EEOC....

A friend who works for EEO at a Fed agency (not EEOC) told me EEOC
employs people with a Bachelor's degree who had no experience as a
lawyer so they're really incompetent.

I guess EEOC has a better chance of winning this case because of the
Warn Act law that forbids mass lay-off. Combining Warn Act with ADA
gives you very good chance to win.

But what burns me the most is when
