Congress weighs extending trade and rent control programs
The House Ways and Means Committee opens hearings on extending the reciprocal trade program before its June 30 expiry. Senate and House Banking Committees consider a seven month extension for the anti inflation law and options to renew rent control beyond March 31 with possible limits on rent hikes. Subcommittees prepare regular department money bills with an early March floor date, while Acheson may face a foreign aid panel hearing. A White House visit by the four leaders may shape top priorities.
