Foster nomination blocked again by Senate GOP
Senate Republicans blocked a vote on Dr. Henry Foster for surgeon general for the second time. The 57 to 43 tally mirrored the previous day as Democrats and some Republicans opposed moving to confirmation, a move viewed as a win for Clinton and a setback for abortion rights opponents. Foster defended his record amid criticism of abortion-rate claims.

Senate approves 13 billion highway bill after rights of way dispute
The Senate passed a 13 billion highway bill by voice vote after a daylong delay over rights of way across federal land. Alaska senators Stevens and Murkowski pressed to limit historic rights, leading to a moratorium amendment. The measure funds 6.5 billion yearly for 1996 and 1997 to improve about 16 000 miles of roads and lets states set speed limits and helmet rules while tightening underage drinking penalties.
