John Engler, president of the National Association of Manufacturers, appeared this morning on CNBC to discuss the economic stimulus, infrastructure and tomorrow’s hearing on the Export Administration Act.

The hearing is by the House Foreign Affairs’ Subcommittee on Terrorism, Nonproliferation and Trade, “The Export Administration Act: A Review of Outstanding Policy Considerations.” Details.

The House has stacked up roll call votes on 26 amendments to an appropriations bill, so committee hearings were interrupted today.

The House Homeland Security Committee mark-up of H.R. 2868, the Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Act, didn’t get very far at all before the committee broke. Chairman Bennie Thompson (D-MS) did have an opening statement. (Earlier post.)

NAM President John Engler was scheduled to testify before  a House Foreign Affairs Committee subcommittee hearing on export controls and the Export Administration Act. That hearing was postponed.
