TREA Washington Update for May 9, 2008

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY TO YOU ALL!

Another big week for politics. The fight for the Democratic nomination for President continues. It now seems clear (if it didn’t before) that neither candidate will win without the Superdelegates’ votes, so now the political maneuvering and campaigning has returned to DC behind closed doors. In the meantime the remaining Primary campaigns continue. There was a huge and surprising fight in the House concerning the War Supplemental (please see below) which has pushed the vote back to next week. Congress is also fighting over a huge Farm Bill and a Home Mortgage bill. But we all can take comfort that the House of Representatives passed a resolution, HRes 1113, approving of the goals of Mother’s Day

*******************************

1) Fight Among Democrats In The House Delay Passage Of War Supplemental

2) Hearing on Veterans’ Suicides Held

3) New Federal Recovery Coordinator Program Office Established

4) DC Circuit Court of Appeals Reverses Vietnam Blue Water Case
