Johnson Urged To Tour West During Spring
President Johnson may undertake a Western inspection tour in May or June, possibly reaching Hawaii, to meet voters where they live while denying active campaigning.

Johnson’s popularity in the Plains and Rockies underpins the push for a nonpolitical, grass roots focused visit.
