DEAL ON REPORTING ABUSE
Under a deal tentatively reached yesterday by lawmakers distressed at revelations about sexual abuse by Catholic priests, clergy would be required to report child abuse by their peers to the authorities. Negotiations over the measure had been stalled for weeks, in part because Senate Republicans were reluctant to cross the Catholic Church so soon after the Senate broke with them over another bill requiring insurers to pay for prescription contraception.
