GOP seeks solo budget vote as Senate mulls 1984 plan
The GOP on the Senate floor advances a three-part compromise to the 1984 budget, aiming for 51 votes without Democratic help. It envisions 7.5 percent increased spending for 1984, 5 percent for four years, an about eight billion dollar two-year tax rise, and eleven billion in domestic outlays. Five lawmakers demand arms control changes before MX missile support. House leaders push a mutual freeze on nuclear weapons with a floor vote planned by week’s end.
