Veterans pensions and labor reform move through committees
The veterans' pension bill, a watered down version of the earlier measure, is studied again by the House Veterans Committee with some members favored to restore World War II veteran benefits.

Rep Jacobs said the Rules group wastes time while Chairman Lesinski expects Rules to clear the bill by week’s end and leaders plan to start debate next week as AFL lobbying ramps up pressure. The administration aims to repeal the Fair Labor Standards Act and shift to a looser labor law.
