Ribicoff drafts his own Democratic platform for 1970s agenda
Sen. Abraham Ribicoff proposes a broad Democratic platform with full employment, racial desegregation of neighborhoods, national health insurance, and an independent Consumer Protection Agency. He urges tax credits for non-public and college students, metropolitan school integration, housing for low and moderate income families, and a unified health strategy while criticizing current welfare reforms and HEW size. He also emphasizes education access and foreign policy support for Israel in the Middle East.
