: Financial Services Committee Chairman Spencer Bachus today announced the tentative hearing schedule for the next two months.
Chairman Bachus said, “The Committee will be busy this year addressing the issues of concern to Americans: jobs, economic activity, Fannie and Freddie reform, and implementation of Dodd-Frank. We will work to ensure that taxpayers are protected. This hearing schedule is tentative but is intended to inform Americans on the issues the Committee will be tackling.”
The intent of this notice is that members of the committee, staff, the public and interested stakeholders will be able to plan ahead.
