Democrats want stricter curb on spending hikes
United Press International
WASHINGTON — House
Democratic leader Jim Wright
said Monday Democrats plan to
hold defense spending growth
to no more than 4 percent in Fis
cal 1985, far less than the Re
publican compromise hike of
7.5 percent.
President Reagan and Senate
COP leaders agreed last week
on what they said is a $150 bil
lion three-year plan to cut the
federal deficit.
That plan, which came under
increased criticism from Senate
Democrats Monday, chops the
president’s request for a 13 per
cent hike in military spending
to 7.5 percent, makes social
spending cuts and raises money
by closing lax “loopholes.”
But Wright told reporters, “I
think there is a consensus that
the growth in defense spending
should be no more than 4 per
cent.” Sen. Lawton Chiles of
Florida, the ranking Democrat
on the Senate Budget Commit
tee, Monday stepped up his at
tack on the COP plan, saying
the Republicans are “trying to
bamboozle us with the num
bers.”
Chiles, who questions the eco
nomic assumptions the presi
dent used to arrive at his Fig
ures, said estimates from the
independent Congressional
Budget Office show the plan
would trim only $100 billion off
the debt, not $ 150 billion.
The Democratic-led House
Budget Committee has been
meeting privately for the past
several weeks to put together a
budget, including items to cut
the debt, estimated at a total of
about $1.5 trillion.
House Budget Committee
Chairman James Jones of Okla
homa said last week the Demo
cratic debt reduction plan will
cut $200 billion over three
years.
Wright, of Texas, said the
Democratic budget probably
will be ready Tuesday or
Wednesday.
Sen. William Proxmire, D-
Wis., urged his colleagues in a
Senate floor speech to reject the
“teeny-weeny yellow polka-dot
bikini of a deficit cut” proposed
by Reagan and the COP.
Wright said the Democrats
also are in general agreement
on some reductions in social
programs, but with an eye to
“salvaging the programs that
are the real safety net” such as
disability payments. Medicare,
student loans, veterans benefits,
welfare, and child nutrition
programs.
Last week Chiles asked Sen
ate Budget Committee chair
man Pete Domenici, R-N.M., to
hold hearings on Reagan’s debt
reduction plan. But a Chiles
spokesman said Monday there
had been no word from Dome
nici, one of the architects of the
GOP-Reagan proposal.
