The House “voted to extend the window for reconsidering a key part of trade legislation that Democrats defeated on Friday, leaving President Obama’s trade agenda in limbo,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
“The House voted 236-189 to extend through July 30 its time frame for reconsidering the component of trade legislation that would extend a program of assistance to workers who are determined to have lost their jobs because of production shifts overseas or import competition. Before Tuesday’s vote, lawmakers had only until midnight to reconsider the legislation.”
