Senate approves trimmed foreign aid bill amid looming cuts
The Senate agreed to a 627 million dollar reduction in Kennedy era foreign aid, leaving an authorization package of about 3.70 billion and signaling further belt tightening next week. Conferees will reconcile differences with the House while future appropriations loom. Leaders warn the aid program faces danger without revisions, as protests mount against large spending and allied burdens. The plan cuts military aid, economic development loans, alliance support, emergencies fund, Alliance for Progress, and development grants, with final passage contingent on separate action on a grain sale amendment involving Hungary.
