Debt limit reshaped as House trims Nixon request
The House Ways and Means Committee rejected Nixon’s plan for a 50 billion rise in the national debt, instead backing a 20 billion increase to a 450 billion ceiling through June 30. The panel, endorsing Rep. Joe Waggoner’s proposal, cites back to back deficits totaling 64.3 billion for the current year and 1973. The measure awaits House vote and would require another June congressional review.
