Congress Ends Session Battling Nixon Over Major Bills
The Ninety-second Congress adjourned after a partisan clash with President Nixon. It overridden a veto on water pollution control, killed his proposed $250 billion spending ceiling, and halted major domestic plans including welfare reform and broad health care. Many foreign policy bills also stalled, while Nixon secured only the revenue sharing measure.
