Congress Passes Substitute for Senate Shipping Bill
The House and Senate debated a shipping measure today. Amendments limited voyage miles, required US citizenship for half the crew, and set vessel size thresholds. The House substitute was approved 144 to 47, and the bill moved toward a third reading amid intense party pressure. The Senate meanwhile tackled immigration, veteran relief, and Indian appropriation bills with multiple amendments, adjourning after general calendar business.
