WASHINGTON (AP) — Determined to ensure passage of their huge bud get-balancing bill, House Republican leaders agreed Tuesday to boost Medicare reimbursements for rural America and considered other late changes in Medicaid and environmen tal provisions. Speaker Newt Gingrich and other GOP leaders are meeting daily with rank-and-file lawmakers nervous over numerous pieces of the seven-year pack age of spending reductions and tax cuts. The House plans to vote Thursday on extracting S270 billion in savings from Medicare, the biggest portion of the deficit-cutting bill. It will vote next Tuesday on the entire S894 billion mea sure, just as the Senate debates a simi lar bill. No one doubts that majority Republi cans will force both measures through the House, ignoring President Clinton’s veto threats. But Gingrich and his deputies may change provisions on health, labor protection, oil drilling and other items to ensure against signifi cant defections. “If it changes, it’s not because we’re experiencing failure,’’ House Budget Committee Chairman John Kasich, R- Ohio, said of the deficit-cutting mea sure. “It’s because we’re being reflective.” Also being worked into final form by the leaders will be reductions in farm payments and civil servants’ pensions, which House committees complete due to bitter disputes} Republicans. The days before a big, close v*! always the best time for legisl issue demands. “If 15 to 18 of us defect, theb said Rep. Douglas Bereuter, among the farm-state lawmakers;' ing Medicare changes. "Thisist we have to exert leverage.” BONFIRE SPECIAL rELCHICCT: A Fresh Approach To Tex-MexT 1 FREE CUP OF QUESO w/ purchase of any entree Buy One Dozen Doughnuts At Regular Price and get the Second Dozen For Half Price Anytime after 2:00 a.m. in the Eastgate Center Texas Ave. HOURS: Sun.-Thurs. 11 a.m.-10 p.m. (under water tower) Fri.-Sat. 11 a.m.-l 1 p.m. 693-6684 Offer valid only with coupon. 1 coupon per person, exp. 11-01 -95 ^ZZESE2ZZZX323ZZES2Z2E9 ■ ' j,.
