Senators press White House data on NATO impact of missile deal
The Senate debated a Byrd plan to require detailed White House data on how a proposed European missile treaty would affect NATO deterrence and alliance unity. The move ties to the fiscal 1988 defense bill, with support from Nunn and Quayle and likely more amendments opposed by Reagan. A separate Byrd amendment would curb Kuwaiti tanker convoys unless Congress votes to continue escorts.
