WASHINGTON--House Democrats today came under renewed pressure--from the White House and House Republicans--to accept the Senate version of legislation extending the federal backstop on terrorism risk insurance.
It came as a spokesman for Rep. Steny Hoyer, D-Md., House majority leader, said proposed amendments to the Senate version of the legislation could come to the floor tomorrow.
The House bill amends the Terrorism Risk Insurance Revision and Extension Act of 2007 as revised by the Senate Banking Committee in an October vote and approved unanimously by the full Senate Nov. 16.
