Congress approves 14.5 billion disaster aid package
Congress sent President Bush a 14.5 billion disaster bill to aid hurricane victims and farmers harmed by drought and floods. The package, linked to a 10 billion military construction bill, includes 11.6 billion for Florida and other East Coast states, plus 9 million for oyster reef restoration and 10 million for timber producers. It funds loans for an Alaska gas pipeline and allocates aid to diverse regions and agricultural sectors, with final Senate approval Monday amid GOP House tensions.
