Emanuel: 'Name not important'

Emanuel: 'Name not important': "Rep. Rahm Emanuel (D-Ill.) has offered to remove his name from a lobbying reform bill if Republican leadership agrees to give the bill a vote on the House floor.

The move follows warnings by House Republican leaders that the legislation would face strong opposition if Emanuel remained a co-author. It also comes as Democrats and Republicans are jockeying for higher ethical ground amid a heightened focus in Washington on lobbying practices."
