Johnson Debt Bill Defeated By House Republicans
The House rejected President Johnsons bid to raise the debt ceiling by 29 billion in a 210 to 197 vote. A GOP coalition with conservative Southern Democrats and antiwar liberals urged budget revision and spending cuts, saying Johnsons figures were false. Congress must act by June 30 as the current 336 billion ceiling would drop to 285 billion on July 1 unless extended.
