Papal visit sparks Polish cheers amid tough national moment
John Paul II addressed Poland during a period of deep national strain as 200 Poles and émigrés waved red and white flags in Warsaw. Budget talks stalled with Democrats pressing for domestic spending, while Reagan opposes 1984 85 tax increases. Contingency funds to aid recession relief become central to conference committee negotiations amid liberal resistance and House Republican opposition to new taxes.
