us capitol building

(Worthy News) – House Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer now says there is no agreement to tie energy permitting reforms to a must-pass government funding bill.

“You’re asking what we’ve agreed to on our side of the Capitol in the House.

I was not part of the agreement. Our committees were not part of the agreement.” [ Source: Washington Times (Read More…) ]
