A preview of the House Republican annual retreat starting on March 9 led the March 9 edition of Bloomberg Intelligence’s Washington Policy Pulse. Republicans are expected to discuss the next steps on an Iran supplemental defense bill as well as chances for another reconciliation bill -- potentially tied to health care, taxes and tariffs. We also discussed the likelihood of the DHS shutdown ending next week as well as a Congressional update views towards the US-Iran conflict. We also previewed several of the key races to watch in the US midterm elections.

The Bloomberg Intelligence Financial Policy weekly call is designed to provide investors an opportunity to learn about the most recent relevant policy research, information regarding forthcoming political catalysts and other on-goings within Washington DC. 

The call is open to all and is held every Monday at 10:00 a.m. EST. You can register for the call here: https://bloomberg.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN__PqCkwY-S2m3hbQqvVC1_Q#/registration
