Economy/Business News Alert: Reid delays debt vote

---------------------------------------- Economy/Business News Alert: Reid delays debt vote July 30, 2011 10:16:18 PM ---------------------------------------- Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid announced late Saturday that negotiations with Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and the White House had made enough progress that he would delay consideration of his own legislation to avert the debt crisis. Rather than a 1 a.m. Sunday vote, Reid said he would give the negotiators room to maneuver and set a 1 p.m. Sunday vote on his bill -- which McConnell has already assured would be defeated. http://link.email.washingtonpost.com/r/3873VC/XTC5ZN/7XFRC5/XEOYBV/N4EB5/6C/h For more information, visit PostBusiness.com ---------------------------------------- Get The Washington Post app for iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch. http://itunes.com/apps/thewashingtonpost ---------------------------------------- Get breaking news alerts sent to your mobile phone.
