Last week was a short week so that a number of Members of Congress could fly to France to participate in the 75th Anniversary of D-Day. Steve Gordon reports on the U.S.-Mexican negotiations that thankfully ended Friday night without the imposition of tariffs. He also covers last week’s jobs report, the status of the appropriations process, and concludes with the key messages from the D-Day ceremony. Dana Marston provides highlights of this week’s legislative calendar, as well deeper looks at consumer confidence and a recent report from the GAO on the impact renewable fuel standards have on fuel prices and emissions.
We always appreciate your notes and comments. We’ll continue to bring you a discussion of current activity in Washington every week in This Week.
