One Down
Just in case you aren't keeping up, the House passed, with a veto-proof majority, the first Democratic promise Tuesday: implementation of the 9/11 Commission recommendations, for things like cargo inspections at our ports and a host of other things. It sounds great, but until they follow up with the funding that is needed in the appropriations bills to follow, it's a mostly empty gesture. We'll see.

Up Wednesday: the minimum wage increase.
