Today, the Senate takes up a temporary measure to KEEP the government
running until Congress and the President can AGREE on a budget.

The House approved the bill yesterday.
The Clinton administration says a VETO is LIKELY because the bill

And a controversial Senate bill BANNING a rare, late-term abortion procedure
has been put ON HOLD, pending hearings.
Abortion rights advocates regard the vote as a temporary victory. It stalls
an effort to ban "partial-birth" abortions. That's when a doctor partially
removes a fetus in order to complete the abortion.
