Senate Could Approve Charitable Package Today or Tomorrow

According to Republican leadership, the Senate is expected to consider H.R. 4, The Pension Protection Act of 2006, later today or early tomorrow and will likely clear the measure before leaving town on Friday for August recess. H.R. 4, which passed the House last week, includes a package of charitable reforms and incentives.

On Tuesday, Senate Majority Leader labeled H.R. 4 “must-pass” legislation, and said he’s hopeful the Senate will approve the measure without amending it, thereby avoiding a House-Senate conference committee.

More on this once the Senate acts.
