Nixon seeks halt to busing orders
President Nixon asks Congress to stop new court busing orders while seeking alternatives to desegregation. A temporary moratorium would last until July 1, 1873, with immediate intervention in Richmond Virginia and Denver, and would not affect existing orders. The plan emphasizes improving education for poor children and outlines remedies for court-ordered busing with safeguards against lower grade impact.
