Ford bill to aid New York City survives Senate test
Washington Ford's 2.3 billion loan plan to avert New York City's default clears the first Senate hurdle 57 to 22 as lawmakers debate cloture. Sen. Helms sought to send the measure to the Banking Committee, but the vote kept the bill alive while Alten's filibuster risk looms. Backers argue the aid amount must be minimal to avert a default, despite Ford's veto threat.
