U.S. House Passes Bill Removing Sovereign Immunity for Saudi Arabia in Connection with the 9/11 Attacks
A few days before the 15th anniversary of the September 11th attacks, the U.S. House of Representatives has just passed legislation that would waive Saudi sovereign immunity in connection with litigation by families of those killed in the attacks. President Obama is expected to veto that legislation but there is speculation that the House would have enough votes to override the veto.
