Digitized from Box 25 of the White House Press Releases at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON May 4, 1976 The President of the Senate Sir: I ask the Congress to consider further appropriation language for the fiscal year 1976 for the Department of Labor. The details of this proposal are set forth in the enclosed letter from the Director of the Office of Manage- ment and Budget. I concur with his comments and observa- tions. Respectfully, throul R. 4d Enclosure Estimate No. 94th Cong SS 2nd Session EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET WASHINGTON, D.C. 20503 May 4, 1976 The President The White House Sir: I have the honor to submit for your consideration further appropriation language for the fiscal year 1976 for the Depart- ment of Labor, as follows: DEPARTMENT OF LABOR MANPOWER ADMINISTRATION Advances to the Unemployment Trust Fund and Other Funds Appropriations provided under this head in the Supplemental Appropriations Act, 1976, shall also be available for repayable loans to the Virgin Islands, as authorized by title III of the Emergency Compensation and Special Unemployment Assistance Extension Act of 1975, as amended. This authority will permit the Secretary of Labor to use funds from this appropriation to make loans to the Virgin Islands in such amounts as he determines to be necessary for the payment in any month of compensation under the Unemployment Compensation Law of the Virgin Islands. The Virgin Islands will exhaust their current loan authority of $5,000,000 by June 30, 1976. The House, in action on H.R. 13069, has authorized an additional $10,000,000 through September 30, 1977. I have carefully reviewed the proposal for appropriations contained in this document and am satisfied that this request is necessary at this time. I recommend, therefore, that this proposal be transmitted to the Congress. Respectfully, Janes Jan James T. Lynn Director
