Billy Jack Goes to Washington

Billy Jack (Tom Laughlin) is appointed a United States Senate to fill out the remaining term of another senator. It is hoped that he will quietly vote the party line, but his term in the Senate runs into trouble when he proposes a bill to fund a national youth camp which happens to be on the property where a nuclear power plant is also being proposed. His fellow senator, Joseph Paine (E. G. Marshall), claims to oppose nuclear power but is secretly taking Graft (politics) to influence his votes in favor, and moves to try to keep Billy Jack out of the way when the bill is being debated.
