Lawmaker says grass roots push for reduced spending
House Appropriations Chairman Rep. George Mahon notes a wholesome demand to cut spending but cautions against drastic cuts. He says war needs top priority and nondefense spending should be trimmed wherever possible while avoiding vetoes. Senator Russell Long warns of a potential $20 billion deficit without tax action. Mahon predicts a measured effort to hold the line, review programs, and avoid new entitlements, with no repeal expected.
