House panel caps farm aid at 5.5 billion dollars
A House Agriculture Committee vote limits supplemental farm assistance to 5.5 billion, with 4.6 billion in direct payments to grain and cotton farmers and 900 million for other crops. The move draws White House support and narrows a prior 6.5 billion proposal as the Senate prepares its own bill. Industry groups had urged more aid.
