Congress votes on FDA food safety and Obama birth resolution
The week ending July 31 features House passage of HR 2749 expanding FDA authority over foods with hundreds of facilities affected and $500 registrations. Pennsylvania members split on the vote while a GOP motion failed. A July 27 measure recognizing Hawaii's 50th anniversary of statehood and Obama birth facts passed unopposed, with no Republicans voting yes. Senate energy and water funds $34.3 billion, with concerns over earmarks. GM and Chrysler aid TARP-related holdings faced a rejection.
