Warren, Vitter team up against Dodd-Frank change in spending bill

By Joseph Lawler | December 12, 2014 | 3:07 pm

Sen. Elizabeth Warren joined with her Republican colleague Sen. David Vitter on Friday to try to remove a financial regulation roll-back from the omnibus spending bill set for a vote in the Senate.

The Massachusetts Democrat has been the most vocal opponent of the tweak to the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial reform law included in the spending bill, urging House Democrats to oppose the bill because of it earlier in the week.

With the spending bill now moving to the Senate for passage, Warren and Vitter have created an unusual alliance of liberal and conservative lawmakers to try to get the provision removed.
