Bachus jabs back over Dodd-Frank fixes

“There certainly does need to be an investigation into who is impersonating Barney Frank because someone who looks and sounds exactly like him said on June 29, 2010, and this is verbatim: ‘I believe we will need a technical corrections bill that goes beyond minor things,'” he said in his own statement.

Frank made that comment at a meeting of a House-Senate conference committee, before Dodd-Frank had been enacted.

He also indicated at a Sept. 24 hearing on executive compensation provisions in the law that one of the measures, which would require public companies to disclose the median income of its employees and compare it with the pay of its CEO, was “imprecisely worded” and indicated he “would be very much open to try to fix that legislatively.”
