Johnson seeks record 186.1 billion budget with war tax rise
President Johnson asks Congress for a 186.1 billion outlay budget with a 10.2 billion wartime surcharge to fund Vietnam and domestic priorities. He warns the deficit could hit 20 billion without the tax hike, emphasizes anti poverty crime and pollution efforts, and outlines federal debt and defense spending for 1969. The plan expands unified budget accounting and projects slower federal construction and mortgage credit tightening.
