Welfare Bill Advances With Broad Social Security Boosts
Congress last June approved major changes to welfare and Social Security. The measure raises the maximum earnings against which taxes are levied from 3000 to 10800 in 1873 and to 12000 in 1974, with a conference expected to craft a compromise for President Nixon by mid October 1972. The bill expands benefits, eases retirement ages, increases survivor and disability provisions, extends Medicare, and introduces a guaranteed national income floor for the aged and disabled, while facing partisan hurdles and a work-or-else welfare debate.

Nixon McGovern Clash Over Tax Plans In 1972 Campaign
President Nixon repeats there will be no tax increase in 1973 and would veto bills that would force one while Congress must approve any spending raising the budget. McGovern counters that his tax proposals do not raise levies on wage earners and vows welfare changes target only those unable to work. Both men address Vietnam and labor neutrality, with Meany’s AFL CIO stance shaping endorsements and internal pressure.
