Nixon asks Congress to block busing and equalize education
President Nixon asked Congress to pause all federal court pupil-busing orders while pursuing long term plans to equalize education. He urged an equal educational opportunities law directing about 2.5 billion dollars in aid to high poverty schools, with busing only as a last resort and focus funds on areas of greatest need. He cited the 14th Amendment to justify congressional action and called for continuation of emergency school aid through mid 1974.
