Congress honours Milton Friedman

Rick Sincere has a round up of who said what:

It was little noted — except as a passing snigger in a story syndicated by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch — but the U.S. House of Representatives last week passed a resolution honoring the life and work of Milton Friedman, who died last month at the age of 94.

Introduced by Representative Cliff Stearns (R-Florida), the resolution had 55 cosponsors and passed on a voice vote on December 6. As a non-binding resolution, it was not conveyed to the Senate and will not require the President's signature.
