Ron Paul’s Push For Full Fed Audit Slated For House Vote

In a memo to Republican members sent Friday, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) unveiled the GOP majority’s plan for the months leading up to the fall elections. Among a “busy legislative agenda,” including bills tackling healthcare, domestic energy production and taxes, Paul’s 300-word measure has carved out a spot on the docket, reportsThe Hill.

The bill has garnered a huge number of co-sponsors — 227 in all, including several committee chairmen.
