Beckt Pension Bill Amendment Sparks Publicity Debate

In Washington on July 16, Mr Beck pressed an amendment to the $100 million pension bill to publish names of pensioners and claimants to expose fraud. Radicals opposed, arguing it would degrade pensioners. The measure failed as the bill passed with little change and the pensions office gained fraud-detection powers. The note also covers tobacco tax talks, river and harbor cutbacks, and the fate of the Hennepin canal project.
