GOP senators seek Democratic votes on 1984 budget plan
Senate Republicans struggle to pass a 1984 budget with only their votes. Lawton Chiles says leaders began appealing to Democrats to back the Domenici compromise, which calls for a 7.5 percent defense buildup, $11 billion more for social programs, and $8 billion in new taxes for 1984 and 1985. Leaders aim to resolve the battle by mid next week as five GOP moderates withhold support for higher taxes.
