Article Description| There is bipartisan backing in Congress for an economic stimulus package, but the plan’s size and shape is not clear. The House on Jan. 29 approved a $146-billion stimulus bill, which President Bush supports. But the Senate Finance Committee is developing a competing plan that would go beyond the House’s provisions. Neither the House nor Senate Finance plan has any public-works funds, but industry officials are trying to squeeze infrastructure money into the final legislation. |
