WASHINGTON (AP) —
Congress is moving quickly on
the Bush administration’s request
for a multibillion-dollar down-
payment to fight terrorism, and
legislation authorizing force
against terrorists is not far behind.
Some lawmakers wanted to
go further: formally declare war
on terrorists.
“I say, bomb the hell out of
them,” Sen. Zell Miller, D-Ga.,
said Wednesday. “If there’s col
lateral damage, so be it. They
certainly found our civilians to
be expendable.”
President Bush was expected
to ask Congress on Thursday for
$20 billion in immediate funds to
help rebuild the damaged
Pentagon, clean up the debris from
collapsed buildings at New York’s
World Trade Center, reimburse
federal and local governments for
rescue efforts, and bolster security.
Lawmakers said they hoped
to have the bill to Bush by
Thursday, but Senate Majority
Leader Tom Daschle said he
doubted the measure could be
approved in one day and said
there was no final agreement on
a dollar amount.
At the same time, a separate
measure would authorize the
administration to undertake
military action under the War
Powers Act.
While the thought of spending
billions more this year and likely
tapping into formerly untouch
able Social Security reserves
would have ignited a political
firestorm just a week ago. law
makers said Wednesday the
request would be granted now.

The council heard a presenta
tion by Robert Rose, a Bryan
bike shop owner. Rose wanted
to alert the council to state funds
available to help repair College
Main Avenue.
Rose said the road has many
faults and is not structurally
sound considering the amount of
traffic it receives.
“College Main has some serious
problems," Rose said. “It's really
too narrow for the type and vok
ume of traffic it carries."
The Texas legislature created
the Safe Routes To School pro
gram this year, which allocates
money to repair streets within a
two-mile radius of a public school.
Rose said the council could use
the monies to make the >
adjustments and rep*
College Main.
Rose informed the ecu'
the programs’ next meetr.
the council agreed to
representative for more
mation about the program
the possibility of atl<
money for repairs.
The next city council ntf
will be Oct. 25.
