Plan to ration gas sparks party clashes in House
The House passed a bill granting the president power to invoke gas rationing if fuel supplies fall 20 percent over 30 days. Congress would have 15 days to review with possible vetoes, and the president could set state energy targets for shortages of 10 percent. Democratic leaders claimed Republicans want to emasculate the bill to embarrass the president, while Republicans countered that their claims were unsound. The president says he does not plan to use rationing but seeks the power in case of major oil-disruption scenarios.
