Low Tide Of Liberalism Showing In Congress
The 91st Congress, ending in 1970, shows a slim liberal record. ADA reports only eight House members scored 100 percent on liberal issues with no senator reaching that mark. Notable names listed include Cranston, Church, Percy, Bayh, Hughes, and others. A hard core of six House members remains after losses, and the new 92nd Congress has yet to settle the balance as Nixon faces a more politically oriented pair of sessions.
