Senate Votes To Trim Housing Bill Amid Bipartisan Debate
The Senate sent a cut down housing bill to the president after a long, close session that trimmed more than 50 million from the package. Key figures included Sen Jennings Randolph Clark and Sen Homer Capehart with amendments to extend veteran housing programs. The measure, tied to 40 billion dollars in defense funding and a DC voting amendment, passed 42 to 39 with Sparkman and Dirksen opposing a provision that would set yearly housing-start goals.
