House action on CFTC bill likely next week

The House on Thursday approved the rule for the Customer Protection and End User Relief Act, which would reauthorize the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, by a vote of 230 to 184, but then proceeded to finish consideration of the fiscal year 2015 Defense appropriations bill.

The House leadership has not yet published a calendar for next week, but the approval of the rule indicates that the House is likely to take up the bill.
