Milk price rise tied to campaign giving, Nixon era
Washington report links large dairy group contributions to Nixon with a March 25 1971 decision to raise federal milk price supports from 4.66 to 4.93 per hundredweight. The Post cites letters in a lawsuit and notes the move boosted dairy payments by as much as 700 million. The letters, shared with the attorney general and Senate panel, cite political leverage as a factor in the reversal from the March 13 plan to hold prices steady.
