''It seems to me that it is far more important for us to use limited funds to try to deal with problems of this nature,'' said Wisconsin Democrat Democrat David Obey, who sponsored the amendment to a labor and health spending bill. Citing the recent onslaught of schoolyard homicides by students, Obey said his plan would allocate $100 million to boost mental health care programs in schools by taking money from federal reimbursements to states' low-income health care programs to pay for Pfizer Inc's(PFE - news) Viagra impotence drug. The House Appropriations Committee was considering a bill for fiscal 1999 spending on labor and health and human services programs. President Clinton earlier Tuesday said he would veto the bill in its current form because it cut too many of his education and job training initiatives. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- More Quotes and News: Pfizer Inc (NYSE:PFE - news) Related News Categories: health -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Help -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright c 1998 Reuters Limited.
