Filibuster may stall action on auto safety extension
As the 94th Congress winds down the Senate faces a filibuster risk that could prevent a vote on a bill delaying auto maker emission standards for one year. Senator Jake Garn pledges to speak all night to block the measure while the House and Senate seek adjournment for campaigning. The package also includes unemployment tax increases and jobless benefits for state and local workers, with other actions pending in both chambers. The overall session has seen overrides of a Ford veto on a large funding bill and passage of a broad revenue sharing extension, plus major updates to copyright law and a pipeline veto power bill, all awaiting presidential action.
