The nays are 180. The bill is passed.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSUPERCAPTION: Presiding president\u003cbr/\u003eIn a challenge to President Clinton over Kosovo, a divided House voted to limit his authority to use ground forces in Yugoslavia. \u003cbr/\u003eThe Republican-sponsored measure would require Clinton to obtain congressional approval before sending ground elements to Kosovo or other parts of Yugoslavia.\u003cbr/\u003eSOUNDBITE: (English)\u003cbr/\u003e\"If Mr Milosevic should ever see American ground troops on the ground, he should have no doubt that that has been the product of a unified decision between the presidency and the congress prior to those troops being present on that soil. In that case he can have no doubt we mean business.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSUPER CAPTION: House Majority Leader Dick Armey\u003cbr/\u003eRepublicans believe Americans should have a say before their soldiers are sent off to fight a war.\u003cbr/\u003eBut some Democrats said the measure would interfere with Clinton's role as commander in chief and would send a message of mixed U-S resolve to the international community.\u003cbr/\u003eSOUNDBITE: (English)\u003cbr/\u003e\"This bill, if it were to pass sends an overwhelmingly negative message to our troops and to our allies regardless of how one feels about the need for the congressional role in authorising ground forces. This bill represents precisely the wrong way to seek such a role.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSUPER CAPTION: Representative Alcee Hastings (Democrat, Florida)\u003cbr/\u003eEarlier in the day, Clinton urged lawmakers to present a unified voice to Milosevic and the rest of the world on the crisis in Kosovo.\u003cbr/\u003eHe appealed to them for a quick approval of his  6 (b) billion U-S dollar request to pay for the conflict.\u003cbr/\u003eBut in what was intended to be a largely symbolic vote, seeking after-the-fact blessings on the NATO bombing campaign, the votes came to a 213-213 tie.\u003cbr/\u003eHowever, briefings to ensure NATO attacks were inflicting considerable damage to Serb infrastructure continued at the Pentagon.\u003cbr/\u003eSOUNDBITE: (English)\u003cbr/\u003e\"At some point they're going to be non-effective. That's gonna have to be determined by Milosevic. I think there are indications from a lot of sources that they're becoming ineffective in some cases. They're gonna have to decide when that is but as far as I'm concerned they're becoming ineffective now.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSUPER CAPTION: U-S Major General Chuck Wald\u003cbr/\u003eDespite the intensified attacks, the Reverend Jesse Jackson will leave for Belgrade on Wednesday night with a delegation of religious leaders.\u003cbr/\u003eJackson said he hopes to meet with the three captive American soldiers, as well as with Milosevic, himself.\u003cbr/\u003eAlthough the Clinton administration does not support the visit, Jackson did receive a last-minute briefing at the White House about the current situation in Kosovo.\u003cbr/\u003eSOUNDBITE: (English)\u003cbr/\u003e\"He made clear that the mission is dangerous.

Escalating war is more risky so we have weighed the price of this mission.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSUPER CAPTION: Reverend Jesse Jackson\u003cbr/\u003eWhite House Spokesman Joe Lockhart said Clinton wanted to reiterate to Jackson that the NATO conditions for ending the air war aren't negotiable.\u003cbr/\u003eSOUNDBITE: (English)\u003cbr/\u003e\"That position is not negotiable. He has stated that this is a humanitarian effort. It's a private effort. It's not one that we particularly support because again their signals can be misinterpreted and misread.
