The House Oversight Committee would like to know | Ron Bloom, Assistant to the President for Manufacturing Policy, was quoted in a 2009 newspaper account and a 2010 book saying about the auto bailouts that he "did this all for the unions." Yet when Bloom appeared before the committee on June 22, he denied ever saying those words. Other White House officials have defended Bloom by indicating that he did indeed say those words but was joking. And this has led committee chairman Rep. Darrell Issa to ask what is going on. |
