Split in House on Foreign Aid Oversight
In Washington the House Appropriations Subcommittee led by Rep. Otto Passman faces a split vote over President Johnson’s request for 3.5 billion for foreign aid. Passman seeks at least 500 million in cuts, while the president aims to shield the funds as the panel’s outlook favors the administration. The death of Rep. Clarence Cannon weakens Passman’s coalition, and new full committee chair Rep. George Mahon can influence subcommittee seating amid this funding clash.
