Aid Bill Over Hump Say Backers as House Weighs Final Pass
Backers claimed the emergency foreign aid bill is over the hump and ready for final passage after the House rejected amendments to cut or raise the $590 million package. Reps. Vorys and Jarman said amendments improved the measure, with votes shelving a proposal to allocate funds to China and opposition to assisting governments under communist control. The bill awaits a late day vote amid prep for Senate compromise.
