Rule Passes for Lobby Reform Bill
The House voted 216-207 to approve a rule (H Res 783) to bring the lobbying-ethics-earmarks bill (HR 4975) to the House floor. Majority Leader John Boehner said the bill would be considered next week. Some GOP lawmakers had earlier tried to block the rule, objecting to provisions dealing with member earmarks.
