President Commends House for Passage of Corporate Corruption Bill
Statement by the President
Corporate Responsibility Portal Page
I commend the House of Representatives for its overwhelming
bipartisan passage of reforms to hold corporate America accountable.
This legislation will protect investors, crack down on fraud and
wrongdoing, and provide tough oversight of the accounting industry.
Leaders in Congress heeded the call to put the interests of investors
and employees first. I look forward to prompt action by the Senate so
that I can sign this important legislation into law.
