More U.S. lawmakers demand BP halt dividend

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- BP PLC /quotes/comstock/13*!bp/quotes/nls/bp (BP 30.63, -4.05, -11.67%) should stop dividend payments to shareholders until the oil major stops the runaway well in the Gulf of Mexico and cleans up the mess from the disaster, a group of U.S. lawmakers said Wednesday. Democratic Reps. Peter Welch of Vermont and Lois Capps of California plus 41 other House members made the demand in a letter to BP's chief executive Wednesday. BP has until July 27 to decide what to do about its second-quarter dividend.
