This report by the Committee on Appropriations to which was referred the bill H.R. 4389 making appropriations for the Departments of Labor and Health Education and Welfare and Related Agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30 1980 and for other purposes reports the same to the Senate with various amendments and presents herewith information relative to the changes recommended. The Departments of Labor and Health Education and Welfare HEW Appropriations Act for FY 1980 H.R. 4389/H.R. 7998 faced significant delays due to disagreements over abortion funding. The bill which ultimately covered the redesignated Department of Health and Human Services HHS set funding for labor programs and health education and social services. Key aspects of the 1980 appropriations discussions included: Labor Appropriations: Funding for the Employment and Training Administration OSHA with restrictions on small business inspections and the Mine Safety and Health Administration; Health and Human Services: Funding for the CDC NIH and other health services; Transformation: The period marked the transition of HEW into the Department of Health and Human Services and the creation of the separate Department of Education. Intense debates over the "Hyde Amendment" abortion funding caused substantial delays in final passage. Hearings for the 1980 fiscal year covered detailed budgetary requirements for these departments.

NOTE: This final version has additional material which was not available to the subcommittee at the time of the original subcommittee print of July 27 1961 as well as a comprehensive index. The 1960 United States presidential election was the 44th quadrennial presidential election. It was held on Tuesday November 8 1960. In a closely contested election Democrat United States Senator John F. Kennedy defeated incumbent Vice President Richard Nixon the Republican Party nominee. This was the first election in which fifty states participated and the last in which the District of Columbia did not. It was also the first election in which an incumbent president was ineligible to run for a third term because of the term limits established by the 22nd Amendment. It is also the last election where the losing candidate won Ohio. Nixon faced little opposition in the Republican race to succeed popular incumbent Dwight D. Eisenhower. Kennedy a junior U.S. Senator from Massachusetts established himself as the Democratic front-runner with his strong performance in the 1960 Democratic primaries including a key victory in West Virginia over United States Senator Hubert Humphrey. He defeated Senate Majority Leader Lyndon B. Johnson on the first presidential ballot of the 1960 Democratic National Convention and asked Johnson to serve as his running mate. The issue of the Cold War dominated the election as tensions were high between the United States and the Soviet Union. Kennedy won a 303 to 219 Electoral College victory and is generally considered to have won the national popular vote by 112827 a margin of 0.17 percent though some argue that Nixon should be credited with the popular vote victory as the issue of the popular vote was complicated by the presence of several unpledged electors in the Deep South. Fourteen unpledged electors from Mississippi and Alabama cast their vote for Senator Harry F. Byrd as did a faithless elector from Oklahoma. The 1960 presidential election was the closest election since 1916 and this closeness can be explained by a number of factors. Kennedy benefited from the economic recession of 1957-58 which hurt the standing of the incumbent Republican Party and he had the advantage of 17 million more registered Democrats than Republicans. Furthermore the new votes that Kennedy the first Roman Catholic president gained among Catholics almost neutralized the new votes Nixon gained among Protestants. Kennedy's campaigning skills decisively outmatched Nixon's who wasted time and resources campaigning in all fifty states while Kennedy focused on campaigning in populous swing states. Nixon's emphasis on his experience carried little weight for most voters. Kennedy used his large well-funded campaign organization to win the nomination secure endorsements and with the aid of the big-city bosses get out the vote in the big cities. Kennedy relied on Johnson to hold the South and used television effectively. U. S. Government Printing Office paperback‎
