Lawmakers Outline West Virginia Budget Overhaul Plan
Governor Wise outlined a multi year plan to trim state spending by about 3.4 percent this fiscal year and as much as 10 percent in coming periods. He urged consolidations, job freezes totaling 2 000 vacancies plus 2 500 retirements, and a cigarette tax to fund Medicaid and health care. He warned of a growing workers compensation debt and emphasized safety, while noting BRIM health insurance savings and CHIP and Promise Scholarship gains as signs of progress.

Iraqs Disclosure Promptly Flows to UN In Nuclear Probe
Iraq agrees to answer questions and send thousands of pages to the United Nations in New York and the IAEA in Vienna. U.N. analysts and diplomats will review the material for months as Middle East peace remains unsettled after the Kuwait invasion and seven months of occupation ended by a U.S.-led force in 1991. If Iraq cooperates fully, sanctions could be lifted after 12 years of crippling economic penalties.
