Plan to extend the RFC life and empower president to end it
Washington officials say Congress may be asked to extend the Reconstruction Finance Corporation for two years. A proviso would allow the President to end the program by declaring the emergency over after one year. With January 31 loan authority expiry looming, lawmakers race to act. Proposals also consider lengthening loan maturities from five years and extending or renewing loans based on security values.
