Just Kidding - Bush Will Probably Sign Reform Bill Into Law
BNA Money and Politics ($$) now reports that President Bush is expected to sign the lobbying and ethics reform bill, S.1. "The officials, who asked not to be identified, told BNA that Bush still believes the measure is 'far from perfect,' but he is not likely to veto it when congressional Democratic leaders send him the measure in September. " This comes after earlier suggestions that the President may veto the bill. The bill is expected to be sent to the White House shortly after Labor Day. And if possible, check out this BNA ($$) special report, "New Rules for Lobbyists and Lawmakers," which analyzes S.1 section by section. And this Washington Post editorial, 'Expected to Sign.'
The Campaign Legal Center has updated its side-by-side comparison of the lobbying reform bills.
