A group of Senate and House Democrats led by figures like Sen. David Boren and Rep. Phil Gramm aims to draft an economic package with deeper spending cuts and more business tax breaks than the president’s plan. The effort intends to balance the federal budget ahead of Reagan’s timetable, with about a dozen senators and roughly 40 members from the Redneck Caucus participating in meetings and discussions.
