Reagan and Gorbachev set date for 1988 summit
President Reagan announced a December 7 meeting with Mikhail Gorbachev in Washington to discuss a treaty banning intermediate range missiles and a second pact to cut long range forces by half. The joint plan targets the first half of 1988 for the talks and possible signing, with a short Washington visit and a two to three day summit. A separate letter from Gorbachev suggested a two to three week window to resolve the missile ban.

Hayden budget plan faces windfall tradeoffs in 1989
Gov Mike Hayden and his staff outline a six week effort to craft the FY 1989 budget. They aim to grow treasury balances and largely return a federal windfall from 1986 tax reform, but a full $135 million return could still leave a $191 million general fund deficit by June 30, 1989. O Keefe notes the windfall cannot fund all needs, forcing potential cuts to agency requests up to 17 percent or other balance options. Budget talks begin soon with 41 percent of agencies reviewed so far.
