National Tap Dance Day proposed as Congress stalls
AP Special Correspondent Walter R. Mears reports Congress failed to proclaim National Tap Dance Day amid ethics woes over Speaker Wright, pay raises, and broader fiscal battles. The year sees budget, Nicaragua aid, and a minimum wage debate shaping a tense Memorial Day recess. A bumper sticker quip prompts fresh talk on congressional performance. Alfonso D Amato proposes today as National Tap Dance Day honoring Robinson, King of the Tap Dancers.
