WASHINGTON (AP) - Congressional officials say the government plans to
suspend the popular "cash for clunkers" program amid concerns it could
quickly use up the $1 billion in rebates for new car purchases.
The Transportation Department called congressional offices late
Thursday to alert them to the decision to halt the program, which
offered owners of old cars and trucks $3,500 or $4,500 toward a new,
more fuel-efficient vehicle.
