Senate approves antipoverty funds despite GOP protests
The Senate voted 71 to approve $1.785 billion for the second year of President Johnson's antipoverty program amid Republican objections. The measure now goes to Johnson, who may trim the total when requesting actual cash. The bill keeps state governors veto power over major projects but allows the Office of Economic Opportunity to override those vetoes.
