Vitter Blocking SEC Nominations
Senator David Vitter is blocking the nominations of two Securities and Exchange Commision members. Vitter will do this until victims of Stanford Group's Ponzi scheme get an answer as to why their requests for coverage against their losses have not been heard yet. Vitter says "the SEC waited far too long to take action against Allen Stanford, and now they're dragging their feet in responding to the victims."
