Chet Holifield will seek a conference to push the House version, amid ongoing debates over urban policy and intellectual influence on government.

GOP governors push back on President Johnson inflation pitches during recent briefings. Michigan Governor Romney—a top GOP contender—says inflation isn’t solely due to Vietnam funding, blaming lack of fiscal policy and a heated economy, and suggests earlier tax increases.
