Senate Republicans reject 12 percent across the board cut
Senate Appropriations Committee Republicans rebuff President Reagan’s call for a 12 percent, across the board domestic cuts. They favor deeper defense reductions, delay of the July tax cut, and support trimming $16 billion from the 1982 deficit, with Hatfield noting the 12 percent plan is not politically realistic or equitable. A White House spokesman signaled potential veto of the House labor education and health bill as O’Neill expected, while the House likely would sustain a veto.
