Reagan seeks Congress input on deficit cuts plan
Washington AP President Reagan moves to sound out Congress on reducing the deficits in his 1981 budget plan with no ground given. Rivlin of the CBO will testify as the administration faces a revised deficit forecast about ten billion higher, driven by defense costs and farm loan supports. Domenici proposes trims via Pentagon cuts tax boosts and delaying the tax-rate cut, while Speakes says it's early to tell if a bipartisan deal emerges. Regan calls Domenici's proposal reasonable yet notes issues to be addressed. Stockman praises the good faith effort but cites problem areas.
