Consumer agency bill falters in fourth cloture vote in Senate
Supporters of a consumer protection agency failed to break a conservative filibuster in the Senate with a 64 to 34 vote, two short of the required two thirds. The measure, opposed by major business groups, would create a federal agency to defend consumer interests, test products, and collect complaints. Vermont senators Aiken and Stafford voted to end debate, while Kennedy missed a floor vote due to a bells timing issue.
