Watch This One Democrats Plan Expansive Economic Bill
Montana Senator Murray leads Democrats toward introducing the economic expansion act of 1949 to avert a depression. The plan would create an economic cooperation board with the council of economic advisers and authorize at least 15 billion dollars in nonfederal public works. It signals a Senate counterpart to the House’s economic stability act of 1949, with strong state control over prices and production. The debate centers on preserving private enterprise vs. expanding government role.
