Schultz urges Support for Saudi arms sale in clutch vote
Secretary of State George P. Shultz urged leaders of the American Jewish Committee to back Reagan on a $354 million sale of weapons to Saudi Arabia. He framed the vote as showing unity for the president and argued that congressional consultation laws hinder credibility with allies and enemies. Senate resistance to the plan persists, with veto prospects uncertain and lawmakers urged to rally support.
