Boehner: Lift The Liability Cap
House Minority Leader John Boehner on This Week yesterday said he’s now in favor of lifting the cap on BP’s liability in the Gulf oil spill gusher. Though currently law makes BP responsible for cleaning up the actual oil itself, the same law limits its liability to $75 million. Senate Democrats have pushed to raise the cap to $10 billion or get rid of the cap entirely. Boehner now seems to be suggesting he’s on board.
