Senate Blog To Seen Vote On Logan Bill
In Washington on January 18 the Senate opened a push to force consideration of a bill granting the courts a stronger veto over executive agency rules. The measure, sponsored by the late Senator Lo Rin, passed the Senate last summer and was reevaluated at administration officials’ request. The judiciary subcommittee met as the calendar group debated an extra loan to Finland and House leaders prepared a late vote on the $1.101 billion independent offices appropriation bill, removing a $25.40 item tied to the personnel administration council.
