Welfare benefit hike gains Senate committee approval
The Senate Budget and Taxation Committee advanced a bill to raise welfare payments to single mothers over ten years, with funding sources unresolved. The measure would boost Aid to Families with Dependent Children by at least 10 percent annually for 16 years, costing about 100 million dollars over four years starting 1963, possibly funded by repealing exemptions. The committee also rejected a windfall profits tax on major oil companies.
