Business finds Capitol Hill friendly under new leadership
Washington AP reports that Magnetek executives feared energy efficiency rules would obsolete their lighting components and sought aid from Rep. Mike Parker. The 104th Congress, led by Republicans, advanced regulatory relief for chemistry, oil, and logging interests while Senate panels weighed wetlands and endangered species shifts. Environmentalists and Clinton aides call the push aggressive, but industry lobbies claim gains across many bills, including timber, oil, and ranching sectors.

Japan's auto imports rose 35 percent in the first half as foreign-made cars enter a market of 2.6 million vehicles. Imports held 7 percent of the market, while Honda USA led American-made sales and Toyota’s US-made models rose. The rise largely reflects overseas production and lower overall volumes.
