Vacation Brings Senate Congress Toward August recess
Washington AP Congress races toward an August vacation amid defense, farm, and foreign aid bills. Senate leader Dole aims to bring a farm bill to the floor despite unfinished committee work as deficit cutters remain deadlocked on a federal budget package. House liberals push for changes to a 302.5 billion Pentagon plan, while debates over weapon production and a 338 billion deficit package continue. Foreign aid authorization awaits final action after conference reports, with Dante Fascell seeking a Wednesday vote.
