She complained of Buckingham Palace’s curt response and urged a clear ownership answer.

Transit aid bill dumped by House
Washington House Rules Committee rejected an 1a billion compromise measure to aid urban transit systems. The panel voted four to one to clear the measure for a floor vote before shelving it. A tie vote counts as no and could be resumed under suspension requiring two thirds. The measure would authorize 7.8 billion in capital grants and 1 billion in operating subsidies for urban transit over six years. Members argued the earlier compromise violated committee jurisdiction and should be disclosed.
