Reid is pushing to add a provision to the year-end omnibus that would help Caesars avoid bankruptcy by allowing it to restructure debt incurred by a subsidiary out of court, according to Senate and K Street sources.
Critics of the provision say it would narrow a Depression-era law intended to protect minority shareholders and apply retroactively to a handful of lawsuits against Caesars. One lawyer involved estimated that at least six cases would be affected.
The proposal is causing uproar because there has not been a hearing on it this Congress. Critics say it’s an example of another provision being slipped into a massive bill at the last minute to help a special interest.
