U.S. House Approves Spending Measure to End Dispute With Bush
Bloomberg.com: Politics: "The legislation provides a 4 percent boost, or about $550 million, for Pell Grants, which help low-income families send their children to college. Bush proposed cutting the program by $200 million. The National Institutes of Health would see its budget increase by $329 million or about 1 percent to $29.2 billion. The Social Security Administration would get $450 million more to contend with a backlog of disability claims. The National Endowment for the Arts would get $145 million, a 16 percent boost from last year."
