Authority to Decline Compensation for Service on the National Council of Arts
The Anti-Deficiency Act does not prohibit a member of the National Council of the Arts from serving without compensation. The OLC does not provide release dates for its opinions, so the release date listed is the date on which the opinion was authored. The original opinion is available at www.justice.gov/file/24206/download.
