United States. Appalachian Regional Development Act of 1965
Description
An account of the resource
On December 1, 1964, West Virginia Senator Jennings Randolph wrote his in-state colleague, Senator Robert C. Byrd, requesting support for a bill that would provide aid to depressed areas throughout the Appalachian region. The Senate had passed a similar aid bill a few weeks earlier, but it did not make it through the House of Representatives prior to the close of the 88th Congress. As a result, a new bill needed to be reintroduced and passed in the Senate when the 89th Congress convened in January, 1965. Senator Byrd, himself a product of Southern West Virginia’s coalfields, readily agreed to sign on as a co-sponsor. Introduced on January 3, 1965, the Appalachian Regional Development Act passed the Senate on February 1, 1965 and the House of Representatives on March 3, 1965.

Following the passage of the Appalachian Regional Development Act in the House, Senator Robert C. Byrd issued this press release announcing his intent to “expedite action” on the release of the funds needed to support the programs.

Description
An account of the resource
The Center’s work places Congress in a historical and biographical context. We encourage historians, journalists, political scientists, and constitutional scholars to draw on the historical records of Congress and the records of individual members of the House and Senate to gain new insights into the workings of the legislative branch of government and its relationship with the Executive and Judicial branches of government under the U. S. Constitution.
The Byrd Center holds 4 congressional collections, including the papers of two members of the 89th Congress: Senator Robert C. Byrd and Congressman Harley O. Staggers, Sr.

Following the passage of the Social Security Act Amendments, Senator Byrd penned this column detailing two new insurance plans established as part of Medicaid. Each benefited Americans aged sixty five and over. Part A, the "Basic Hospital Insurance Plan," provided coverage for inpatient hospital stays, extended care in skilled nursing facilities, home-health visits, and outpatient diagnostic services. Part B, the "Voluntary Supplemental Medical Insurance Plan," provided some coverage for costs associated with services and equipment not included under Part A for a $3 monthly premium.
