Democrats Seek Seven-Point Legislative Record
Democratic leaders outlined a seven point program aimed at retaining Congress in November. The plan includes social security expansion, public housing, higher farm price supports, highway construction, school aid, a $1 minimum wage, and public power projects. The minimum wage is already above Eisenhower administration recommendations. The farm bill to restore supports was vetoed, a soil bank bill passed. The plan mirrors some admin proposals but seeks to show a better path than a Republican Congress would. With only the wage item complete, leaders say about six weeks are needed to advance the rest before possible adjournment by mid July.
