Clinton pushes plan amid tough choices debate in Congress
President Clinton led a lobbying drive for his economic plan amid Republican criticism of tax hikes and liberal objections to spending cuts. He framed the package as necessary to cut the deficit by about 500 billion while liberal and some Democratic senators urged restoration of Medicare cuts. The Budget Committee moved the measure toward floor action by week’s end, despite concerns it could cost jobs and burden business. Clinton, speaking at the New York Conference of Mayors, challenged critics to show where they would make the tough choices and how they would fund tax relief for the wealthy without worsening deficits.
