Senate reviews school prayer again under Helms amendment
The Senate approved 47 to 37 a Helms amendment aimed at shielding state voluntary school prayer from federal judicial review. The move could threaten the Supreme Court ruling on church state separation as debate continues on a Carter administration education department bill. Byrd and Ribicoff maneuver to force another vote Monday and shift the amendment to a Supreme Court operation bill. Matsunaga warned the amendment may not pass Congress.

Budget Committee Aims Low for 1980 Deficit Reduction
The House Budget Committee approved a 1980 budget plan with a deficit of 24.9 billion dollars, down from President Carter's projection. It trims defense outlays by about 2 billion, cuts defense budget authority, and eliminates 2.3 billion in federal revenue sharing to states while preserving local revenue sharing. The plan relies on nearly 6 billion in savings from various program reforms, though many proposals face political clash on the House floor.
