By a vote of 256-155, the House adopted the military budget despite the threat of a presidential veto As it pushed to recess for the jewish Holiday of Rosh hash Ana. In a final plea rep. Bill Dickinson r-ala., said defense Secretary Dick Cheney had just told him that Bush would veto the Bill if there were drastic cuts in ski the b-2 stealth and troop strength. Overall the legislation slashes $24 billion from the presidents request for defense in the fiscal year beginning oct. 1. The Bill reduces Overall troop strength by 129,500, eliminates research Money for the my and midget Man nuclear missiles and saves the popular v-22 Osprey aircraft that Cheney sought to cancel.

The House action also puts it on a collision course with the Senate which last month adopted a $289 billion defense Bill that leaves Bush a request for the b-2 intact and pares about $ 1 billion from ski. Moments before final passage the House turned aside an attempt by Dickinson to reverse the deep Cut in troop Levels that had been approved by the panel. Along a party line vote the measure failed 254-156. The panel had adopted a Cut of 129,500 in Active duty strength including 68,500 from the army. Dickinson wanted to limit the army reduction to 40,000. House rejection of the amendment leaves the troop reduction at 129,500, far higher than the 100,000 reduction approved by the Senate last month and nearly four times the 38,000 proposed by Bush in january. Dickinson argued that a deeper Cut in troops would a cripple the defense departments ability to manage the build Down and manage the current crisis in the persian  House Republican whip rep.
