Appalachian Poverty Bill Passes Senate to Aid Appalachia
The Appalachian poverty bill cleared the Senate 45 to 13 and moves to the House. It links programs for economic growth in Virginia, West Virginia, Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Tennessee, notably a five year 840 million highway program and 220.2 million for education and sewage projects. Opponents argue it taxes other regions and duplicates new poverty act programs, with House opposition led by Republicans hopes for Southern Democratic support. The measure aligns with President Johnson’s war on poverty and faces a tougher House battle.
