The Israeli government warned Egyptian President Mubarak that his visit to Israel must include Jerusalem or be canceled. The cabinet, after briefing by Yitzhak Shamir, said the Jerusalem condition is essential and questioned Mubarak’s planned timing for a working visit rather than a state visit.

Eleven environmental groups circulated an alternative energy and resource budget to cut 8.5 billion from Reagan's deficit while preserving environmental programs. It trims nuclear and synthetic fuels funding, expands solar and conservation, abolishes the Synthetic Fuels Corp, and retools highway spending toward rail and mass transit.
