Johnson Forces Vote On Foreign Aid With Pushed Congress
President Johnson bent Congress to pass a foreign aid measure by pressuring members to stay in Washington over the weekend. The Senate and House had previously reduced aid allocations, and the final compromise centered near three billion dollars while Export-Import bank guarantees to communist countries were blocked.
