    House panel questions union firm's trades By LEIGH STROPE AP LABOR WRITER
    'Millions of workers deserve to know whether Ullico directors violated the law and made millions at the expense of rank-and-file union members they represent,' said Rep. John Boehner, R-Ohio, the committee's chairman.

    Ongoing investigations by the Labor and Justice departments, the Securities and Exchange Commission, a federal grand jury and Maryland's insurance commission also should determine if current laws are adequate to protect union members and workers, and suggest changes that Congress should consider, the report said.
