Pay Out Is Hot Potato In House
The House weighs a repeal of a $12,900 pay raise for members of Congress with a decisive vote expected. A minor waiver on a smaller raise is set, while a key amendment to strip funds from the legislative budget could cut annual pay from $57,500 to $44,600 for lawmakers and other officials. Senate review and conference chances loom, with party leadership struggling to line up votes. The political stakes are high as proponents push a broader cut affecting governors, judges, the Vice President, Cabinet members, and top federal employees.

Supreme Court limits Nixon tapes ruling and ads for fees
The Supreme Court ruled 7 to 2 that Nixon lacks control of White House tapes and 42 million documents, affirming Congress authority under the Presidential Recordings and Materials Preservation Act.

The ruling also signals potential relaxation of professional advertising restraints for some fields and precedents. In Ohio, state senators back a 12 member joint committee to probe desegregation issues and busing alternatives.
