Senate to vote on Superstorm Sandy aid

Posted: Updated:

The Senate will vote Monday on whether to provide help to victims of Superstorm Sandy.

The bill would provide more than $50 billion dollars in emergency relief.

Lawmakers from New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut say the money is desperately needed to help rebuild homes and businesses.

But fiscal conservatives want an equal amount of spending cuts in order to avoid adding to our national debt.
