Tom Rooney (FL-16) introduced bipartisan legislation that will speed short sales and spur growth in the housing market by requiring lenders to decide whether to accept an offer within 45 days. “Potential buyers can wait for months for a lender to make a decision on a short sale, and that wait often stops a sale from happening.

By John Aloysius Farrell At an EPA hearing last summer, representatives from Koch Industries argued that moderate levels of the toxic chemical dioxin should not be designated as a cancer risk for humans.
