Maryland Budget Restores 400000 for 350th Birthday
The Budget and Taxation Committee voted to restore 400000 to Maryland’s budget for the 350th anniversary celebration after a prior cut. Gov. Hughes and legislative leaders had argued the funds were authorized, and the restored amount hinges on revenue from special anniversary license plates. In Cyprus, Iraq said its defense minister claimed thousands of Iranians were killed near Basra in the fiercest battle of the war, while Iran reported heavy casualties and continued fighting east of Basra.
