Byrd’s Committee Holds Grip on Bills
The House passed a companion measure to extend unemployment benefits for about 600,000 workers and to provide up to 600 million dollars in federal aid to needy children. The Senate Finance Committee, led by Sen. Byrd, pressed to finish work as Labor Secretary Goldberg testified. Williams of Kentucky planned amendments to tighten eligibility and to begin a payroll tax to fund the plan, arguing the changes would slow passage.
