Richard Nixon: “I do hereby proclaim 'Clean Up America Month,' and ask our Nation's attention to the Johnny Horizon '76 environmental…”

This legislation exceeds my budgetary recommendations by such a large amount--some $540 million--that it presents a clear and distinct threat to our fight against inflation and cannot be accepted.

I do hereby proclaim October 29, 1974, as National Student Government Day.

It is only a beginning, always.

It is regrettable that the Congress has seen fit to add to a bill of such importance to our national security a rider adversely affecting the constitutional separation of powers.
