Republicans push tax cut and spending bills in partisan showdown
In Washington, Republicans moved a $240 billion tax cut and a $39.9 billion spending bill through the House, setting up veto fights with President Clinton over tax cuts, school construction, health care, and immigration. Clinton vowed to veto both, denouncing partisan provisions while urging action on schools, immigration reform, and health costs. House Speaker Dennis Hastert urged lawmakers to quit quibbling and pass good legislation while tensions rose ahead of Election Day.
