Obama Promises Compensation To Contractors if They Delay Layoffs
Until after the election, of course
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) says that he will do anything he can to block the Obama administration from reimbursing defense contractors for severance costs if the firms don't send layoff notices to employees.
The Obama administration issued guidance Friday that said defense firms' costs would be covered if they have to layoff workers due to canceled contracts under the across-the-board cuts set to take effect Jan. 2.
