Senate Defies Carter on Water Project Cuts in Public Works Bill
The Senate passed the public works jobs bill 74 to 11 with an amendment demanding that Carter spend all allocated water project funds. The water cuts, worth 289 million next year, could be in jeopardy if the House does not concur. The measure aims to stimulate the economy by creating up to 184000 jobs and directs 35 percent of funds to states above 6.5 percent unemployment.
