House Rejects Emergency Power Plan in Nixon Era Debate
The House rejected standby emergency energy legislation that would grant Nixon gasoline rationing powers amid a looming fuel crisis. The vote followed a Federal Power Commission warning of potential power shortages from even small fuel disruptions. The report notes tight fuel oil supplies and limited margin to handle shortages, despite a near 20 percent electrical generation safety margin.
