Reid Wants Bush To Pressure Pakistan

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid on Thursday urged President George W. Bush to consider cutting aid to Pakistan unless it restores full civil rights and does more to fight terrorism.

Reid, a Nevada Democrat, told Bush in a letter the assassination of opposition leader Benazir Bhutto two weeks ago had deepened worries about Pakistan's future and President Pervez Musharraf's "dismal record of performance."
