Nixon Raises Presidential Pension Amid Backroom Push
President Nixon used private lobbying to lift the presidential pension from 25 000 to 60 000 dollars a year by routing the move through postal reform legislation. Bryce Harlow met House Speaker John McCormack and pushed for a rider on the second-spouse bill, while Thaddeus Dulski resisted. The proposal would also boost widows pensions and target Mamie Eisenhower, with Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis excluded. Nixon and Johnson favored the increase, arguing Truman needed more support at age 86. A Cuban crisis angle links the motive to counter Soviet missiles, amid renewed Monroe Doctrine concerns.
