House Budget Battle Takes Center Stage In Tight Session
The House faces a day of limited meeting amid heavy weekend absenteeism as Republicans pledge attendance while Democrats question votes. Democratic Leader Carl Albert of Oklahoma brands any subterm compromise a capitulation and notes the Appropriations Committee will seek cuts and repurpose funds next week. Bow's $5 billion cut plan draws criticism as lacking specifics and prompting claims of surrendering congressional control over spending. Ford presses Mahon on delays and unfinanced agencies, with Mahon saying a day’s delay wouldn’t cripple operations since past delays were resolved and services continued until funds arrived.
