(21[D])The House passed a $2.4 trillion Republican budget plan last week that appears to back up increased education funding, though only in general terms, while excluding a Senate-passed measure to support a nearly $4 billion shortfall in the Pell Grant program through one-time mandatory spending.
   The fiscal 2005 budget resolution passed 215-212 on March 25, largely along party lines.
   A report accompanying the resolution promises $2.8 billion above fiscal 2004 levels (22[A])for the discretionary budget category that covers the departments of Education, Labor, and Health and Human Services.
