Defense Aid Cuts Opposed by Senator Connally
Senator Connally says you cannot build up military defenses and cut military spending at the same time while Congress revises the foreign aid authorization. The Senate Foreign Relations and Armed Services committees plan action on a $3.5 billion foreign aid bill and the House cut $651 million from the total. Connally argues remaining sizeable programs should come from economic aid. The House further trims military and economic funds for Western Europe and other areas by about $358 million and just over $100 million respectively.
