Having a great time setting up for #NCPH2023 today! We met our support team at the Hyatt this morning, and they are great. Just a reminder that hotels are not yet at full staff capacity from COVID--like #publichistorians, they are doing big jobs with fewer resources.
#OTD in #History 1968, LBJ announced: “I shall not seek, and I will not accept, the nomination of my party for another term as your president." Outrage over the #VietnamWar had peaked as LBJ was primaried by two challengers, both campaigning against the war he was now blamed for.
ICYMI @NCPHGovHist's Johanna Porr Yuan is taking over our Twitter on her way to the Convening of the States hosted by VA 250. Her day 2 posts just started.
#OTD in #History, 1933, Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt declared a national Bank Holiday to halt bank runs amidst the #GreatDepression. Sworn in just 36 hours prior, his 1st act as #POTUS would test whether he could deliver his campaign pledge of “a New Deal for the American People.”

#OTD in #History, 1951, the 22nd Amendment to the #USConstitution was ratified, establishing a two-term limit for the #POTUS. Calls for such a constraint began even before the Constitution was ratified—but #FDR's election to 3rd and 4th terms finally compelled #Congress to act.
