Senate pushes broad anticrime package for terror, presidents, police
The Senate backed a multi bill anticrime package including heavier penalties for terror bombings, enhanced presidential and congressional protection, more federal aid to police, and new gun related penalties. The package expands federal explosive crimes and allows death penalties in fatal bombing cases. It also strengthens protection for the president and grants authority to appeal certain court rulings in criminal prosecutions.
