Senate completes work on spending bill Bush backs compromise plan
The Senate approved a 6.5 billion spending bill by 98 to 1 to fund defense and domestic programs through Sept. 30 2001. The measure directs 5.9 billion to Pentagon and nuclear weapons work and includes 84 million for miners sickened by testing and 116 million to aid tax rebates. Feingold opposed the bill and McCain sought bigger defense raises but faced GOP resistance.
