|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1975-12-02 | New York City Bailout [HR10481] | Passed (213-203) |
 |
 |
 |
| Passage of the bill to authorize federal loans of up to $2.3 billion a year to help New York City meet seasonal cash flow needs. The federal bailout for New York is a dangerous precedent that opens the way for other large cities to continue wild spending with hopes the federal government will come to the rescue. | |||||
| 1975-12-04 | School Busing [HR8069] | Agreed To (260-146) |
|
|
|
| Question as to whether the House should concur in the Senate amendment to prohibit the Department of Health, Education and Welfare from using, directly or indirectly, any funds in the bill to require school districts to bus students beyond the school closest to their homes for the purposes of school integration. | |||||
| 1975-12-10 | National Women's Conference [HR9924] | Passed (252-162) |
|
|
|
| Passage of the bill to authorize $5 million for the organization and convening of a national women's conference in 1976. This is an unethical and legally questionable use of taxpayers' money to fund a conference that is avowedly pro-ERA and will be used to further the goals of the ERA movement. | |||||
| 1975-12-11 | Common Situs Picketing [HR5900] | Agreed To (229-189) |
|
|
|
| Adoption of the conference report to make it legal for a construction union with a grievance against one contractor to picket all other contractors on the same construction site and to establish a Construction Industry Collective Bargaining Committee. This would allow unions to carry out secondary boycotts against non-union companies by shutting down an entire construction site, thus forcing employers to hire union members only. | |||||
| 1975-12-15 | Oil Price Controls [S622] | Agreed To (236-160) |
|
|
|
| Staggers (D-WV) motion to adopt the conference version of the bill without the provisions concerning advanced automotive technology and loan guarantees for expansion of existing low-sulphur coal mines. The conference version of the bill would maintain price controls on "new" and "old" oil with limited deregulation by 1979. The price controls will inhibit domestic production and increase U.S. dependence on foreign oil. | |||||
| 1975-12-18 | Revenue Adjustment Act Veto [HR5559] | Veto Sustained (267-157) |
|
|
|
| Passage, over the President's Dec. 17 veto, of the bill to cut federal taxes approximately $8.4 billion in 1976 by extending 1975 tax reductions through June 30, 1976. This is another form of tax rebate without a similar reduction in federal spending, thus increasing the federal deficit and generating inflationary pressures. | |||||
