THE HOUSE - Los Angeles Times

Tracking Drug Money By a vote of 127 to 283, the House defeated the stricter of two proposals for banks to keep records of international wire transfers that could involve drug money. The

proposal was for a Treasury Department pilot program in which selected banks would have had to keep track of customers wiring large sums overseas. Left intact by the vote was the softer

approach, supported by bank lobbyists, of letting Treasury draft regulations address the problem. Members voting yes supported the pilot program aimed at catching drug traffickers. How They

Israel’s capital. How They Voted Yea Nay No vote Rep. Anderson (D) x Rep. Dornan (R) x Rep. Dreier (R) x Rep. Dymally (D) x Rep. Hawkins (D) x Rep. Martinez (D) x Rep. Torres (D) x Budget

Plan Rejected By a vote of 106 to 305, the House rejected a blueprint for the government’s $1.2-trillion fiscal 1991 budget. Popular among Republicans, the measure called for higher defense

and lower social spending than the Democratic budget plan (HR 310) it sought to replace. But it was less generous to defense than President Bush’s budget. Its main feature was to freeze

defense and domestic spending other than for entitlement programs at 1990 levels. Members voting yes supported the GOP-backed budget plan. How They Voted Yea Nay No vote Rep. Anderson (D) x
