McCarthy Budget Fight Over 300000 Request in Senate
Washington reports reveal Senate investigations subcommittee chair McCarthy aims for a 300000 appropriation to fund its work, enough to hire ten more investigators and lawyers. The figure, still subject to change, faces subcommittee and Senate scrutiny with opposition expected on the floor. Jenner introduces a separate request for 170000 in new funds for the internal security subcommittee. McCarthy insists on sole rights to hire and fire staff, a point of contention leading to earlier resignations.
