Democratic economic program moves toward legislative form
Ford and Democratic leaders clash as the party crafts a legislative package. The Banking Committee targets a February House vote on housing loans and lower interest rates while Ways and Means pursues a tariff suspension on oil and a tax cut plan aimed at low and middle income groups. The effort aims for early March mortgage ease and broader economic relief with ongoing committee hearings and staff work.
