Senate OKs 1991 defense bill amid SDI overhaul
The Senate approved a 289 billion defense bill cutting 1 billion from Bush SDI requests while preserving two B-2 bombers. It funds 100000 fewer troops, reduces MX rail-garrison procurement, delays Brilliant Pebbles, and trims SDI to 3.7 billion, with veto threats and House plans for a separate 283 billion measure.

Oil spills stain marshes as Bay area fishery resumes
Oil spilled from a damaged barge into Galveston Bay near Houston Point, with estimates of 500,000 to 700,000 gallons. Crews used booms and vacuums to clean, while fishing partially resumed in portions of the bay and wildlife crews guarded birds with noise makers. Coast Guard drones and microbes planned for marsh areas as salvage work considered cutting the barge and moving pieces away.
