Please join Capital Alpha’s Chuck Gabriel January 15 at 11:00 AM EST for a discussion on how budget timelines, the next elections, and other factors will drive legislative activity and headlines that could impact investors in 2015, during the first session of the 114th Congress.

Put into context and discussed in likely sequence will be:

• Early skirmishes on Keystone XL
• Efforts to repeal or amend the Affordable Care Act
• Response to the President’s executive orders on immigration and Cuba
• Key confirmation hearings
• Funding for the Department of Homeland Security
• The need for another doc fee patch by late March
• Highway bill funding
• SCOTUS ruling in King v. Burwell
• Prospects for tax reform or trade deals
• Defense and non-defense sequester threat by 4Q
• FY16 budget process and likely “x date” for extension of the debt ceiling

Dial-in details were provided to Capital Alpha clients. To participate in this call, please contact Rich Linville, Tom Butler or Courtney Oldham (Europe). 

The call should take no longer than 45 minutes, including time for Q & A. A MP3 will be available upon request.
