Senate Majority Leader Lott highlighted family and freedom as Republicans promise education and crime policies, avoiding focus on the White House crisis.

Frederick law mall funding delayed in governor budget
Gov Parris Glendening proposes an 801 million capital budget for 1999 with 10.5 million for Frederick County projects but excludes the state's share for a multi agency law mall. The plan shifts construction timing for a new county barrack and leaves flood mitigation funds unused for Frederick, while police and local leaders weigh backing revised county commitments.
