Washington Letter on Senate Actions and Bills
Last week in Congress featured the Senate Military Affairs committee vote on the Brownsville shooting case. Foraker and DuPont proposals split the chamber with 11 to 2 and 8 to 4 votes respectively, while DuPont did not vote on the latter. Foraker seeks to restore discharged soldiers with back pay, aiming to influence the race issue, and Warner plans a bill to restore black soldiers who prove innocence. The Aldrich bill gains Senate traction with President’s support, while Fowler’s greenback-based House bill lacks clear direction from Speaker Cannon. Owen of Oklahoma boosts his finance-standing then hurts it by backing alienation limits on lands tied to his own ranch options.
