Johnson fights with Senate over 5.2 billion antipoverty plan
President Johnson clashes with a Senate Labor subcommittee over a 5.2 billion antipoverty program for a one year extension. The subcommittee approved 2.2 billion with a 3 billion emergency riot damage and job program attached. A memo from the Office of Economic Opportunity warned the administration to delete the 3 billion portion, while Califano defended the memo’s portrayal of objections and noted the aim to move a bill through the full Labor Committee by Labor Day.
