GOP chairmen implore colleagues to stop Export-Import bill

The Hill reports:
House Financial Services Committee Chairman Jeb Hensarling (R-Texas) is imploring his colleagues to vote against a discharge petition that would pave the way for reauthorizing the Export-Import Bank.

Hensarling and Rules Committee Chairman Pete Sessions (R-Texas) sent a letter to Republican House members on Friday, obtained first by The Hill, urging them to oppose the bipartisan effort to force action on Ex-Im legislation. The vote is expected on Monday.
