Hope to Adjourn Congress Tonight
The 84th Congress aimed to adjourn by nightfall with housing legislation blocking progress. Leaders pressed to cut off the session amid a Friday overtime where the House passed 275 bills and the Senate 75. Conferees disagreed on public housing unit totals, with the Senate proposing 135,000 annually for four years and the House offering none, then narrowing to 50,000 for one year before refusing further compromise.
