From the Marketplace Datebook, here’s a look at what’s coming up Tuesday, June 10:

In Washington, the Commerce Department reports on wholesale inventories and sales and the Labor Department issues its job openings and labor turnover survey for April.

It’s the 79th anniversary of Doctor Bob and Bill W. founding Alcoholics Anonymous.

A House subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Justice discusses the state of religious liberty in the U.S.

A House Foreign Affairs subcommittee examines reconstruction efforts in Afghanistan.

And remember that action film with the bus that would blow up if it didn’t maintain 50 mph on Los Angeles’ freeways? “Speed” was released 20 years ago.
