<?xml:namespace prefix = st1>Washington—Today, U.S. Rep. Lloyd Doggett discussed the resolution he wrote, which the House Democratic Caucus passed, that states: "The Democratic Caucus resolves that in its current form the tax package should not come to the floor of the House for consideration."
"It is these interest bearing trust accounts that currently finance legal services for those who need it most—veterans who have served honorably, domestic violence victims, and persons with disabilities," said Rep. Doggett. "This bill is supported by a broad range of groups, including the Independent Community Bankers Association and the American Bar Association. This protection also ensures that small independent banks are on a level playing field with their larger competitors in securing trust fund deposits."

When Linda Hutson looks at photos of her late dad, Army Corporal William Earl Shults, the memories are there.
"I just thought my daddy was a skinny kid. I didn't know he had been in a prison camp when some of these pictures were made, just months before," Linda said.
Corporal Shults was in that prison camp following the infamous Bataan Death March.

Several key consumer protections under the nation's new health law begin taking effect Thursday — six months after its enactment.
Insurers can no longer set a dollar limit on the amount of care they'll provide over a person's lifetime or deny coverage to sick children. Young adults can stay on their parents' health plans until age 26. And consumers get greater rights to appeal insurers' decisions.
