Amtrak spared as Senate panel freezes many programs
The Senate Budget Committee voted to freeze spending on numerous government programs while resisting broad cuts urged by Reagan. Amtrak appears likely to be kept at current or reduced funding, despite calls to terminate its $600 million annual subsidy. The panel rejected large rail cuts 13 to 7, with Moynihan’s proposal to fund at current levels failing by one vote.
