House OKs farm disaster bill expands weather losses aid
The House approved a budget neutral disaster aid bill extending 1988 1989 crop loss relief to most weather damaged farms. It totals 954 million for direct payments and livestock aid plus 75 million for rural water grants through 1994. The measure faces a Bush veto threat from Yeutter who calls it too broad costly and supportive of farm subsidies over insurance.
