President Kennedy warned in a national address that the economy was troubled and likely to worsen. He urged Congress to approve rapid measures to reduce unemployment, boost aid to families, and expand housing and construction while seeking co operation with Russia on space and science.
Kennedy outlines national peril and opportunity in his first State of the Union address. He promises measures to boost unemployment aid, housing, minimum wage, and research while stressing fiscal prudence to avoid a dollar crisis and prepare for longer term growth. The speech frames a global Cold War context with a push for open competition and allied cooperation.
President Kennedy’s call for broad economic pump priming drew sharp Republican resistance in Congress. House GOP members condemned the administration’s program as a rehash of campaign issues while praising foreign policy and criticizing domestic spending plans amid a sluggish economy.
