White House tours halted by budget cuts
|
|
The Obama administration is canceling tours of the White House beginning March 9, citing staffing reductions prompted by automatic budget cuts that began to take effect March 1. The White House is a popular destination for tourists, especially during the spring break season. Callers to the White House Visitors Office information line are told that tours already planned will not be rescheduled. The automatic spending cuts are hitting a myriad of accounts from the Pentagon to education grants. (AP)
