The House approved a $3 billion housing stimulus to aid low and middle income buyers with subsidies up to 4 percentage points, targeting high cost areas. The measure sits with an $8.9 billion emergency bill and faces a White House veto threat under Reagan. This package also repeals a $75 daily congressional tax deduction and tightens outside earnings limits for senators.
