Commerce Department Budget Increases Flagged By House Panel
Washington Feb 4 The House Appropriations Committee proposed a total of 98 185 400 for the Commerce, Justice and Labor departments for the fiscal year starting July 1 1996. The rise largely restores salaries to full 100 percent and funds anti crime and labor statistic work. The committee boosted budget lines for the Bureau of Labor Statistics and cost of living studies, while trimming state department funding and aligning other agency totals with budget estimates. The Commerce Bureau received a modest non salary increase and the bureau of navigation inspection saw its request closely reviewed amid post ship disaster concerns.

Texas lawmakers proposed two bills to curb district court injunctions against the Texas Railroad Commission. One would bar temporary restraining orders until notice and answer, require bond posting, and allow immediate appeal to the Texas Courts of Civil Appeals. The other would give the State Supreme Court original jurisdiction to review district court injunctions where judicial discretion was abused.
