Lew, Perez, Moniz on the Hill
The House next week will continue with a series of budget hearings featuring members of President Obama’s Cabinet.
Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew, Labor Secretary Thomas Perez, and Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz will all testify Wednesday before various subcommittees of the House Appropriations Committee.
{mosads}The hearings come in the same week that Republicans plan to pass three bills to reform the budget process. The week after next, Republicans will pass a budget for fiscal year 2015.
