Emergency Bill Shapes War Aid and Nixon Authority
A sweeping emergency bill extends President powers, funds foreign aid, and ties foreign policy to Vietnam War control during Congress waning sessions. The Senate and House face a continuing resolution to authorize about 2.9 billion in foreign aid through March 15, including 300 million for Israel to buy Phantom jets and other American weapons, with Nixon set to approve. The Rules Committee cleared the measure for floor action after the Appropriations Committee chief signaled House movement despite possible delays into next year.
