Senate debate ends with approval of Democratic budget plan
Senate Democrats push through a 2.9 trillion dollar budget aimed at domestic programs, with a 52 to 47 vote. The plan backs increased nonmilitary spending, renews key Bush tax cuts for the middle class, and sets pay-as-you-go rules to offset changes. Moderates secured extensions of the child tax credit and marriage penalty relief, signaling a clash with President Bush on future tax and war costs.
