Container Summary

Before the National Security Panel Report, McGovern published "An Alternative National Defense and Economic Posture", often called the Alternative Defense Budget. Here are the zero-based budget statement to the Democratic Platform Committee by Herbert F. York, a budget statement by Charles L. Schultze, a Herbert Scoville draft of the posture, the document as published, a SANE-funded pamphlet summarizing the document, and a press conference statement contesting Republican claims of negative employment effects if the budget were implemented.
