Congress revives the Export-Import Bank
Congress reauthorized the Export-Import Bank through 2019 in a transportation bill, prompting praise from business groups and opposition from conservatives led by the Koch Brothers. The bank, which aids U.S. firms selling abroad, expired for the first time in its 81 year history amid partisan clashes on Capitol Hill.

Memorial marks 29 miners as Blankenship convicts glower
In Whitesville West Virginia a 48 foot black granite memorial with life size miners silhouettes honors the 29 died at the Upper Big Branch Mine as Don Blankenship is found guilty only of a misdemeanor for conspiring to violate mine safety rules. Residents say justice feels hollow in a town with fading coal jobs and poverty. Some note his indictment in 2014 gave hope but many customers still doubt he will face harsher penalties. Massey Energy revenues reached about 2.3 billion.
