Takeouts: president faces new roadblock to reform, listener responses
FINANCIAL TAKEOUT: To paraphrase the Vice President’s now immortal exaltation, President Obama’s signing of an historic health care bill into law last week was “a big deal.” But some of the nation’s biggest lobbyists want to make sure that legislative lightning doesn’t strike twice. Louise Story, New York Times Wall Street and finance reporter tells us how pro-business lobby groups are preparing to lock horns with the Obama Administration over national finance reform.
