Sununu Assistant to the President Chief of Staff The White House Washington, DC 20500 Dear John: The members of the National Grain and Feed Association (NGFA) are shocked with recent proposals which would impose a tax on the trading of futures contracts. Futures contracts are a key tool which are routinely utilized by our member firms in their grain merchandising activities as a mechanism for managing risk. In addition, futures markets provide an efficient vehicle for price discovery for agricultural commodities that are the basis for the high quality food supply in the United States and much of the world. The NGFA is a voluntary association of grain and feed firms with more than 1,300 member companies ranging in size from the smallest country elevator to the largest grain and feed complex. Included in our membership are country and terminal elevators, merchandisers, processors and exporters. The proposed taxes on futures trading would impose huge transaction costs. In fact, such change could effectively raise the cost of trading by as much as one-thousand percent, where a typical transaction could be a brokerage fee of $35 and a federal transaction tax of $325. These suggested taxes also overwhelm the true value of a futures contract to hedgers. The value is more accurately judged on the basis of an adverse price change that is avoided, not the absolute value of the underlying contract. Measured in this way, the economic value to the futures hedger is ordinarily less than ten percent of the value of the underlying contract (because most hedges are held for a few weeks or months) and is often close to zero or even negative (which, for hedgers is offset by a corresponding like gain in the cash market). In any event, the proposed tax represents 6.5 cents per bushel which exceeds the economic value of a large portion of futures transactions by hedgers. Considering also the fact that total gross marketing margins charged by grain elevators are commonly in a range about 10 cents per bushel (which includes the cost of receiving, elevating, handling, shipping, marketing, and hedging), adding another 6.5 cents per bushel could have a dramatic impact on marketing costs and resultant farm prices. 1201 New York Avenue, N.W., Suite 830 Washington, D.C., 20005 (202) 289-0873 National Grain and Feed Association August 15, 1990 Page Two The proposals under consideration would place the greatest burden on independent traders who are the very entities that provide volume and liquidity that are needed to sustain the market. These floor traders and day traders normally seek as little as $10 to $20 profit per contract traded which falls hopelessly short of the amount needed to pay the proposed transaction tax. Thus, these traders would be forced to find another line of work, which would reduce market efficiency demonstrably and widen the bid-ask spreads. When faced with such a situation hedgers would then shift most of their activity toward risk management vehicles outside the regulated marketplace. As valuable as futures are to cash grain traders, there are other risk management alternatives. Back-to-back trades in cash markets is one option. Other futures markets outside the U.S. would also be developed quickly with such a tax imposed on U.S. markets. The major outcome of this proposal would be the competitive disadvantage it would create for the U.S. futures industry relative to its rivals in Europe and Japan. We find it difficult to believe that either Congress or the Administration wants to be held responsible for the world center of this vital and innovative industry shifting from U.S. cities to Tokyo, Paris, and London. But that is precisely what will occur if this misguided concept is approved and such a result would certainly be damaging to the interests of U.S. farmers. We support your efforts to balance revenue and expenditures, but the proposal to tax futures contracts would be highly destructive to both the U.S. futures industry and the users of futures markets. This proposal should be immediately removed from your budget deliberations.

KENNEDY MEMORIAL HUMAN RIGHTS AWARD August 1, 1990 Dear Governor silu Nancy - We are kicking off the first Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Golf Tournament this fall. I hope you won't think it too liberal of me to invite you to be my guest of honor on Friday, October 19 in Hyannis Port. Bobby loved to challenge the best in all of us, and SO I'm calling together the leaders in business and government for friendly competition on the course he loved. Playing together, we will benefit the work of Bobby's Memorial, aiding people all over the world who suffer defamation and torture as they stand up for those basic human dignities that all Americans share. I hope you will team up your formidable games with my hook and slice. Governor and Nancy, together we can put Hyannisport on the map with Augusta, Pebble Beach and Cypress Point. It would be great to tee-off with you on the fairways of the Hyannisport Club with its spectacular view of Nantucket Sound and to see you on the dance floor at the dinner following at our house. With high hope, 2nd warm wisher- [Thel. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.

I am very pleased with the stand you and President Bush have made concerning these bills. My association represents the 4500 proprietary child care centers in the state of Texas and we are a part of the National Child Care Association. We are all tax paying citizens and are small businesses with many being women and minority owned businesses. We have great concerns about the care of America's children being taken away from the centers the parents have chosen and that care being placed in the public school setting. We provided a much needed service to the parents and the children we serve and we want to remain a viable option in the marketplace for providing that service. My mother and I own and operate a child care facility that has been ours for 32 years. This is our livelihood and we want to continue this level of service to the children of the parents who were once in our care when they were young. I want to encourage you to keep up the fight and invite you to speak at the Annual Convention of Texas Licensed Child Care Association to be held in Houston on November the 3rd and 4th at the J.W. Marriott. We would be delighted to have you as our Keynote Speaker on Sunday morning we will be having a Brunch if that time Saturday morning or as the Luncheon Speaker on Saturday. might fit into your schedule better. you could attend our Convention.

Sununu Chief of Staff THE WHITE HOUSE 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, D.C. 20300 Dear Governor Sununu, As the Administration's key advisor you will be interested in a very important conference about Eastern Europe -- with specific focus on POLAND as THE reform leader -- scheduled for October 31, November 1st and November 2nd (Wednesday through Friday), here in New York at THE WALDORF ASTORIA Hotel. This Conference will emphasize the economic (and some political) facets of this newly-free area to interest the American businessmen (some 600 expected) to investigate market conditions and investment potential there. The enclosed photocopy of the letter I sent to the Vice President indicates in greater detail the concepts and objectives of this conference. A very high calibre of speakers from the United States -- to complement those from Poland -- can only make this event a great success and most beneficial for American busi- ness. It would be something quite extraordinary and significant for ALL involved so very important representation from our country is vital. Perhaps it might be advantageous if you were to suggest some very-high-level government participants who would definitely enhance the already distinguished roster.

All of us associated with KINDERWORKS CORPORATION would like you to have a copy of our newest "baby" which is being introduced August 1. As a token of "yet another good thing from our state", I am sending along "THE NEAT NEW TOY" serial #000,000,004 & #000,000,005. It is proudly signed by everyone who had a hand in its assembly. I'd like to give you a little background on the toy as the story may give you a laugh. It is the direct result of having a tooth pulled. When my dentist began the procedure I passed out, and upon my return to earth, he looked greener than me. Claiming he was "too old for this - - - he sent me to an oral surgeon at Massachusetts General Hospital named Ed Seldin. Ed completed the procedure reassuring me the whole time that if I passed out, he would be awake when I came to. During what's normally a 10 minute procedure, which actually took 2 1/2 hours, he asked me what I did. I explained that we made the highest quality children's furniture and toys available anywhere, and invited him to see our factory. He came up to tour KINDERWORKS and we went out to dinner afterwards (November, 1988). It was at that dinner that we sketched out on a paper napkin the original concept for "THE NEAT NEW TOY". It is based on right-angle drive, a principle that propelled us during the Industrial Revolution. Since that day, we have been patiently waiting for the patent, which has been granted, and we are now ready to proceed. For your information I'm also enclosing a photograph of the "MAMMOTH" version of "THE NEAT NEW TOY" together with a photograph of Tanya, a large supporter, who will be introducing it at FAO SCHWARZ in New York on the first of August. It is a working model that Tanya just loves playing with. Like most kids, she appreciates something made to her scale. As I hope you'll agree, from the Kindercolor Express!!! to the Neat New Toy, one good thing has led to another and here we are. All of us are excited and really looking forward to Wednesday. We love the idea of the unveiling at the world's premier toy store, and knowing a couple of guys in Washington who'll appreciate something neat. We wish you success too! Having fun, All of us at KINDERWORKS Cash CORPORATION Andrew J. Kaplan President and Chief Executive Officer P.S. Could you pass along #000,000,004 to the BIG GUY?

Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. One of my colleagues on the Board, Mr. Lew Wasserman, has just completed his term of service. Lew has been one of the most effective and committed members of the Board in the history of the institution. His skills and experience in the entertainment industry have been an enormous benefit to the Center. He has given generously to the Center and has been a key fundraiser in the private sector. I understand that there are many requests which you must consider for vacancies on the Board at the Kennedy Center, but I think that Lew's service has been so exceptional that I wanted to bring his name to your attention and to urge that he be reappointed to the Board. Lew has made an enormous difference to the Center over the years. I know that it would mean a great deal to him to remain on the Board, and his continuing service would be a major asset to the Center in the years ahead. I appreciate your consideration of this request, and I am grateful for all of your help with the Center during the past year. With thanks and warm regards, As ever, Rd Edward M.

Sununu The White House 1700 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington DC 26 July 1990. re: 1. Carbon gases, Carbon Dioxide, co₂, and Methane, CH 4' in the atmosphere; and 2. Public policy. subj: Some recent scientific observations which compel a calm and measured perspective of these matters. Dear Dr. Sununu: Greetings from a fellow M.I.T. alumnus ! The purpose of this letter is to bring to your attention certain recent scientific evidence which compels a very different, and calmer, perspective on the subject of the Carbon gases in the atmosphere which may (or may not) be causing climatic changes, - i.e. the "greenhouse effect", - than has been presented by many in the academic community. My reason for writing is that I surmise that you may not be knowledge- able of these experiments, for I have observed that many academic sci- entists are themselves unaware of these results because such are both recent and arcane. I have myself had some sharp interactions at few scientific conferences during the past couple of years with persons a ignorant of these measurements or unaware of their significance. if it were not the present circumstance that the top level of the I add that I should never hazard the waste of my time in writing government now benefits from the presence of a man who can understand our a scientific or technical discussion. there are enormous amounts of Carbon gases which are being added to the The guts of this recent scientific evidence has established that and atmosphere by natural phenomena of which human activities have no part, which gases turn out to be, surprisingly, juvenile Methane.

The president and Congress are presently being urged by some mem- of the academic community to adopt a variety of expensive, draco- intended to modify human and national activities in order reduce the amount of Carbon gas, specifically Carbon the atmosphere by human activities. Re- facts have established that human activities contribute only a very small portion of the Carbon gases in the atmo- sphere including specifically the recent increases in such. Certainly human activities are causing much more co₂ to enter the atmosphere an- nually than was so, say, 1000 years ago, when the human race had less than a tenth its present numbers and was cutting down commensurately fewer trees in rural areas and burning no coal or hydrocarbon fuels in industrial areas. However, natural phenomena are contributing much more Carbon gases to the atmosphere in the form of Methane which degrades to co₂ than are human activities producing co₂ by burning Carbon fuels. Recognition of this fact is, of course, critical for deciding government policy involving the subject of potential climate change. The recent scientific evidence to which I refer involves measure- ment of the ratios of the isotopes of Carbon nuclei (both the natural and radioactive ones) as observed in different molecular species; un- derstanding such requires proper interpretation of those measurements. This is admittedly a somewhat recondite area of knowledge. Therefore, I prefer to err on the side of unnecessary thoroughness. I shall enclose with this letter a Memorandum which reviews the scientific evidence and conclusions. Please note that the Carbon gases with which the Memoran- dum is concerned are the primary greenhouse gases, Carbon Dioxide and Methane. It does not consider the chlorofluorcarbon gases (e.g., Freon) which are attributable almost entirely to human activity. I hope that it will be useful to you. By way of introducing myself in order that you may have confidence that I possess knowledge of these subjects of which I write, I am pri- marily a commercial gas producer. Working in this industry, I have very much made it my business to know all that I might about the subject of the Earth's gases. By background I was originally a professional sol- dier in the Regular United States Army; and by education I was trained as a scientist having received both my doctoral (1967) and master's (1962) degrees from M.I.T. in the subjects of theoretical and computa- tional physics, respectively, after having graduated from the University of California at Berkeley (1959).

The enclosed booklet on the history of the symposium and our program for 1990 should give you a clear picture of the level of the speakers. Our audience consists typically of senior bankers and money managers (the high-tech type) and of high quality academics with impeccable reputations in the business world. Our theme for 1991 is: "Risk Measurement and Management: Focus on Europe". The term risk is broadly defined to include political and macro economic risk. The essence of your address will be incorporated in the forward of our research book published annually by Elsevier North Holland. We are issuing this invitation early in the hope of completing the program by September 1990 so that we may adequately inform U.S., European and Asian financial leaders and academics and consequently secure the participation of the finest 100 individuals.

Sununu Chief of Staff The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Governor Sununu: On May 17, in his Rose Garden speech on the Civil Rights Act of 1990, President Bush enunciated certain principles on which he would insist in any civil rights bill he would sign. In summary, the President said he would not sign a "quota bill"; he would not sign a bill that did not preserve the constitutional protections of due process, nor would he sign a bill that was a "lawyer's bonanza," encouraging litigation at the expense of conciliation, mediation or settlement. Neither S.2104 nor the Kennedy-Jeffords substitute meets the President's paradigm. It is hard for Congress to debate candidly, and for business to oppose openly, any bill with "civil rights" in its title. Quite understandably, no one wants to be viewed as opposing equal opportunity. Our company is strongly committed to equal opportunity for all Americans -- not only as a matter of equity, but also because it makes good business sense. With changing demographics, companies cannot afford to engage in exclusionary practices. Moreover, all businesses, large and small, are experiencing increasing competition for qualified workers. It is for this reason that we are particularly concerned about the Ward's Cove provision of the bill. This provision, in reversing the Supreme Court's decision, effectively shifts to the employer an almost impossible burden of proof. This, in turn, will force an employer to adopt strict quota systems in hiring and promoting employees, since this would be its only defense. The recent "compromise language," that supposedly lessens the burden of proof for employers, does not go far enough. As long as the burden of proof rests effectively with the employer, any language changes are likely to be inconsequential. The Ward's Cove decision should be left intact. The Honorable John H. Sununu July 18, 1990 Page 2 I am also concerned that the Civil Rights Act of 1990 does away with a well established system of remedies under Title VII, including conciliation, which worked well for 26 years. The employment relationship does not need further polarization that will come from a remedial process based upon jury trials, compensatory (i.e. pain and suffering) and punitive damages. "Make-whole" remedies encourage settlements; compensatory and punitive damages encourage litigation by enticing plaintiffs to go for "big dollar" jury awards. Moreover, this could be precedent-setting legislation which would lead to the placing of every employment grievance before a jury. Dollar costs for litigation would run in the millions for many businesses, money which could be much better spent on training and creation of new jobs for women and minorities. Lamentably, this proposed law does not make any progress towards addressing the problem it was intended to address: discrimination. Quotas set up an even higher color-consciousness, which is just the issue the country has been trying to eliminate. Litigation and jury awards will not establish a more acceptable moral order. The "compromise" being offered by Senator Kennedy does not meet all of the President's principles. Senator Nancy Kassebaum has introduced a substitute to S.2104 which represents a step towards a more balanced civil rights bill, and deserves your consideration. I urge you to work with Senators Hatch and Kassebaum on compromise civil rights legislation, and as the President said, "Take the time to make sure that this is done right simply because it's worth doing right."

SEPARTMENT OF HOUSING * 158435 DEVELOPMENT U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT THE SECRETARY WASHINGTON, D.C. 20410-0001 July 13, 1990 Honorable John Sununu The White House Washington, DC 20500 Dear Governor Sununu: Congratulations to you and the President on a successful G-7 summit. I believe that the President's efforts, and those of his team in Houston, have helped lay the foundation for a new decade of global democracy and international economic growth. John, when the President so eloquently addressed HUD's public servants during my swearing-in as Secretary, he made a great pledge to the American people, especially those living in our Nation's remaining pockets of poverty. Our mission, he said, was "making America, to the fullest extent possible, an opportunity society [with] an economy that's thriving and creating jobs; cities that are filled with enterprise and offer residents a good life and a good living." That opportunity society means "giving people -- working people, poor people, all our citizens -- control over their lives. [I]t means a commitment to civil rights and economic opportunity for every American." And then he said, "The chance for a greater America lies before us and we're going to seize that chance." John, I've never forgotten that statement, in fact, I've adopted it as my personal goal for the Department of Housing and Urban Development. For the record, I wanted you to know how personally and privately taken aback I was to read in the New York Times and other newspapers last week that some in the Domestic Policy Council may reject a Bush anti-poverty strategy as being either too expensive or too politically controversial. After my staff contacted your office, I now realize that these leaked stories were premature and, in large part, inaccurate. Nonetheless, I want you to know how strongly I believe that a Bush Administration anti-poverty agenda emphasizing entrepreneurship, more jobs and job training, homeownership, and access to property can help restore economic growth, equality of opportunity, and prosperity to minority and low-income communities all over America. As you know, for the past year and a half, I've visited many of America's minority communities, low-income neighborhoods, and pockets of poverty. I've become increasingly convinced -- as was when I toured the Charles Houston public housing community I in Alexandria, Virginia with the President -- that our policies are working and, if expanded, can begin to turn around entire low- income neighborhoods, replacing poverty and despair with opportunity and hope for the future. Raising the Administration's concern with the problem of poverty and pressing forward with a bold, new agenda need not lead to massive increases in government spending or a shift toward Democratic Party issues. In my opinion, a debate over how to increase the wealth and opportunities of poor Americans plays to the strength of our Party's Lincoln wing. The Democrats will win any debate over redistribution -- after all, that's always been their only strategy for trying to help the poor. But that's the debate of yesterday. Today's debate is about how to tap the wealth and potential of people living in low-income and minority communities all over America. We Lincoln Republicans can and will win that debate with the President's leadership. I believe the Low-Income Opportunity Board and its staff have laid a solid foundation for the deliberations of the Domestic Policy Council. However, I had hoped that the forthcoming recommendations of the Board would have presented a more forceful case for a new Bush Administration anti-poverty initiative. For instance, I believe the draft report confuses new Administration initiatives with all current efforts; in other words, it looks as if we're building cautiously on the whole current ineffective redistribution of wealth strategy. The Administration has undertaken a number of efforts consistent with a free-enterprise vision of economic empowerment. Those are the ones to build on in developing a new war on poverty, not the strategies of the past. Also, what the report refers to as a "conservative vision of a kinder, gentler America" cannot simply mean targeting assistance better and giving states and localities more flexibility. Both may be sensible and important steps as part of an ongoing effort to improve management and government efficiency, but that's not a vision to help low-income and minority Americans. Economic empowerment and greater access to property for low-income people is a vision, and, in my opinion, can be the foundation of a successful Bush Administration effort to restore economic and social opportunity for the people living in the ghettoes and barrios of our Nation. While I believe that these ideas are important, they are only a few of the many outstanding proposals from other members of the President's Cabinet. I have also shared these thoughts with Attorney General Thornburgh. I believe that a free-enterprise Bush Administration anti- poverty strategy will help secure the gains President Bush is making in minority and low-income communities. Helping those left behind and left out through economic growth, jobs, education, and access to entrepreneurial opportunities is a moral imperative for our Administration and a winning political strategy for bringing low-income people and minority Americans into the ranks of the Republican Party. President Bush's pledge to plant a billion trees is a good target on the issue of the environment. But let's also begin to talk about planting a million new seeds for minority entrepreneurship in our Nation's cities and a million new homeowners by 1992. I believe such a goal -- added to the President's HOPE legislation which is swiftly moving through Congress -- can clearly put the President on the moral and political high ground. Thank you again for the opportunity to serve the Bush Administration and our great Nation.

Sununu Chief of Staff Executive Office of the President The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20500 Dear Governor Sununu: I'm writing in support of the Administration's efforts to hold the line on the recognized defects in the pending Civil Rights Bill. PepsiCo has been in the forefront of promoting equal opportunity employment throughout the nation for decades. But we take strong exception to a number of provisions in the pending measure. Indeed, we feel that this bill would thwart real progress in minority hiring, employment and civil rights by further institutionalizing a quota system and promoting excessive litigation. We are especially concerned by proposals to permit punitive damages for substantially undefined terms. President Bush has said that the civil rights laws should not be turned into a lawyer's bonanza and that he is opposed to quotas. We agree and are counting on your continued leadership to encourage policies that will facilitate genuine progress on equal access and on-the-job fairness.

Mr. Corcoran has extensive experience both in the government and in the private sector which makes him especially qualified for this position. Lee was Executive Assistant to Secretary of Agriculture Bob Bergland, he was Counsel on the Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce in the United States House of Representatives, he was Chief Counsel to the Department of Transportation's Federal Railroad Administration, and he was Deputy General Counsel at the Small Business Administration. Lee has worked as an attorney here in Washington, D.C. and in Minneapolis, and ran a small business for a period of time in suburban Maryland. Lee's political activity was as a loyal protege of Hubert Humphrey. I am totally satisfied that President Bush could not make a finer Democratic appointment to the I.C.C. to carry out his program of improving our transportation systems.

June 28, 1990 Governor John Sanunu Chief of Staff Office of the President 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Governor Sanunu: I was not aware of your recent visit to Kingsmill with the Vice President and I'm very sorry I didn't have the opportunity to watch you on the golf course. You probably didn't know that my real life job is with Anheuser-Busch running this resort development. As a matter of fact, August has commented that I spent more time with Ducks Unlimited these past two years than I did taking care of things here at Kingsmill. At any rate, I'm sorry I didn't get to see you. Rumor has it that the golf course will need quite a bit of repair following all of your divots. However, we will be able to have the Anheuser-Busch Golf Classic here next week. Since my term as president of Ducks Unlimited has ended, I did want to take this opportunity to thank you for all of your help and to also commend you for your difficult, but correct, decisions on those subjects of mutual interest. Now that you know where I am, if I can ever be of any service to you I would be delighted. Warmest personal regards, Hang Harry D.

EDWARD M. KENNEDY MASSACHUSETTS 154572 United States Senate WASHINGTON, DC 20510-2101 June 29, 1990 Governor John H. Sununu Chief of Staff to the President The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear John: It was good to talk with you this morning, and I'm grateful for all the time you have spent with me on the civil rights bill. As I mentioned, I continue to believe that we can work out an agreement on all the issues, so that the bill will truly be a bipartisan effort that merits the strong support of the President. After our talk on Wednesday night, I called together the civil rights groups and invited all of of the Republican consponsors of the bill to discuss your concerns. As I mentioned to you, Senators Jeffords, Specter, Durenberger, Hatfield and Packwood all were able to attend. I'm sure that I didn't state your concerns as well as you had; but we did spend almost two hours discussing the issues, and we tried to address the kinds of examples you had raised with me. I am sending along a specific proposal, which I reviewed in very careful detail with the Republican cosponsors, to respond to the points you raised on Wards Cove. It addresses your main concern about groups of employment practices -- we spell out what happens when a plaintiff cannot identify which specific practices contribute to a disparate impact. I think our proposal addresses the kind of case you were involved in as Governor -- when a malicious plaintiff files a suit challenging everything in sight. But there is concern with substituting "causes" for "results in," because it could be interpreted to require victims of discrimination to explain why a particular test had a disparate impact on minorities or women. To take the example we talked about on Wednesday -- where a standardized test for a local fire department results in the exclusion of significant numbers of qualified black applicants -- it would be unfair to require the Governor John H. Sununu June 29, 1990 Page 2 plaintiffs to prove that the poor test performance was caused by the test, rather than the city's school system. Griggs permitted victims of discrimination to challenge tests that result in disparate impact, without having to investigate possible antecedent causes. To respond to your comments about "job performance plus, we will make it clear that employers may justify employment practices that do not involve employee selection if those practices are substantially and demonstrably related to an overarching or compelling or essential business objective. (You choose the term you like.) And we will accept your suggestion to tie selection practices to "successful" job performance, rather than "effective" job performance. But on the issue of "substantially" versus "significantly," we must stay with "substantially" -- the term we worked out with Jack Danforth -- because we think it fairly describes one of the two key aspects of business necessity under Griggs. We need also to stay with the word "demonstrably," which is in Griggs itself, and which we also worked out with Jack. I promised Arlen Specter that I would pass along his suggestion that Congress simply pass a law saying that Wards Cove was overruled, and that Griggs is the law, as set forth in Justice Stevens' dissent in Wards Cove. On damages, we remain strongly committed to the concept of parity of remedies for all forms of intentional discrimination. But I look forward to hearing the details of the proposal you referred to on Wednesday night. And I have asked the people on our side to reflect on how we might accommodate your concerns, which are shared by other Republicans, about punitive damages. I have asked the civil rights groups to be forthcoming on this issue, but we do need to hear what the Administration is prepared to accept. The Majority Leader has indicated that the Senate will take up the bill on Tuesday, July 10th, when we return from the July 4th recess. I hope that we can reach an agreement on all issues before then, so that President Bush can endorse a package that we can all take to the floor. Again, my thanks for all the time you have spent on the bill, and I look forward to our future discussions. I also hope that your golf game in Kennebunkport fares better than in Bermuda -- at least you won't be distracted by Kennedy faces in the gallery. Governor John H. Sununu June 29, 1990 Page 3 With warm regards. As ever, Pal P.S. Chris Dodd mentioned that you are still chuckling about our discussion of "causes" and "results.

The Georgetown College Republicans have hosted many prominent speakers such as Robert McFarlane and Ed Meese in the past year, and we hope to continue our prestigious lecture series with your appearance, scheduled at your earliest possible convenience. Each year, we attempt to begin the semester with a well known political figure to inform the student body about Republican youth activism in politics. By commencing the semester with a speech from a prominent public servant such as yourself, we hope to generate interest in our organization, and enthusiasm for the GOP as a whole. In the past year, the GU College Republicans have zealously campaigned for local Republican candidates in the District, as well as in neighboring Maryland and Virginia, and with your help, we intend to recruit many more young conservative activists to aid our cause of promoting the Republican Party both here in Washington and in the students' home districts. Please feel free to contact me to discuss our invitation.

Y. 10017 June 27, 1990 Governor John H. Sununu Chief of Staff to the President of the U.S. The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear John: I am sure you are inundated with opinions from all over America, and I hate to burden you knowing your schedule. But I cannot refrain from writing you this very private letter vis-a-vis taxes. I know that reasonable men differ and there are those who believe the fiscal deficit and trade deficit will ultimately cause great problems. I am not one of them and recent history, and I think theory, support my view. It is no accident that the doomsayers have been wrong for eight years. And, it hardly makes sense to raise taxes when an economic expansion is mature. But that is hardly the point. As you well know any politician, any candidate, can choose the basic principles upon which he stands when he runs for elective office. Our President had as one of his main pillars that he would not raise taxes. There is no one in America who doesn't know "Read my lips..." I cannot tell you how much it saddens me to watch my President being converted into just another "pol". If, in fact, there are new revenues imposed, I am afraid the price will be fiercesome no matter what Bob Teeter's polls are now telling you. My own reaction, and that of my friends all of whom were Bush supporters, is one of dismay. I hope it is not too late for you to stop the erosion of credibility. In any event, know that this letter is wholly private and I will still be a supporter. Best wishes and regards, Sincerely, se Alfred H.

Vig, of Carleton College, and I are preparing an article on environmental policy under President Bush. This is a follow-up to our recently published book Environmental Policy in the 1990s, released in February of this year by Congressional Quarterly Press. Part of that book dealt with the record and legacy of the Reagan administration, and the efforts by the Bush administration to set a new agenda for the 1990s. As part of our research for the new article, we believe it would be very helpful to speak to key policy advisors in the Bush administration. Only in that way can we be sure to describe accurately the administration's position on a number of key environmental issues and its plans for the future. We will be in Washington July 23-25 to conduct interviews, and would very much appreciate an opportunity to discuss this with you or one of your assistants who works on environmental policy issues. I will phone your office during the week of July 9 to see if we can schedule an appointment. Thank you for your assistance. Sincerely, Michael Knalt Michael E.

Sununu Chief of Staff The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear John: There is growing concern that the Congress and Administration are considering enacting so-called "environmental taxes" as a means of raising revenue and reducing emissions. These taxes pose serious ramifications to electric utility customers, affected industries and the U.S. economy. For the reasons cited below, we urge you to reject these "hidden" taxes. The most prominent proposals are bills introduced by Representative Pete Stark (D-CA) (H.R. 4177, H.R. 4805). H.R. 4177 would impose taxes on emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO₂) and nitrogen oxides (NO,). These taxes would apply only to electric utilities. H.R. 4805 would impose a carbon-based fuel tax on coal, petroleum and natural gas. The pending amendments to the Clean Air Act deal with the issues of SO₂ and NOx emissions in very stringent terms, with specific emission reduction targets and deadlines. Superimposing an emissions tax would adversely affect the entire U.S. economy, including those communities hardest hit by the clean air legislation. It would result in an excessive and punitive tax that would exacerbate the substantial economic burden of the new clean air requirements, with little or no additional environmental benefit. A CO₂ tax would result in higher energy prices which would contribute to a slow down in economic growth. Further, the costs of these energy taxes would impact low income households the hardest and affect different regions of the country disproportionately. A carbon tax would also render many U.S. industries noncompetitive in world markets and complicate efforts to develop a national energy strategy. Further, unilateral action by the U.S. would not reduce global CO2 concentrations significantly if other countries did not make similar efforts. The Honorable John H. Sununu Page Two June 20, 1990 These taxes are regressive and are an additional tax burden the electric customer should not have to bear. They would result in an excessive tax burden and absorb capital needed for efficient, long-range environmental strategies. Most importantly, these taxes would be ineffective and premature from an environmental standpoint, and self-defeating and punitive in terms of the U.S. economy and our international competitiveness. Sincerely yours, Tom Thomas R.

I greatly appreciate your support of my candidacy and would like to request your consideration in the following matters. When the President and/or Mrs. Bush have occasion to visit New York, especially the 17th Congressional District on the west of Manhattan, I would be most grateful if I were included for a possible photo opportunity or for possible press coverage which I need very much. It would be most beneficial for my campaign if I could accompany Mrs. Bush on any planned stops at perhaps the schools, hospitals, senior homes, etc., which she usually visits. I am also hoping (as I realize 434 other candidates are as well!) to have the President and/or Mrs. Bush at a fund-raising event between now and the fall election. I would be deeply grateful for any assistance which you could offer. I look forward to seeing you again soon: and, with your help, to defeating Ted Weiss in the fall.

Keyes President June 15, 1990 The Honorable John H. Sununu Chief of Staff to the President The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Governor Sununu, Enclosed is a copy of a new report from Citizens Against Government Waste (CAGW), "Cutting Waste: How to Avoid Increased Taxation." The report contains 107 recommendations covering 14 areas of government spending. If these proposals were enacted, taxpayers could save $304.8 billion over five years, avoiding the need for a tax increase. Participants in the budget summit between Congress and the White House should not be discussing new taxes when there is nearly $305 billion in well-documented government waste. The waste-cutting initiatives were drawn from existing public documents. CAGW reviewed reports from the Congressional Budget Office, the General Accounting Office, the Office of Management and Budget, and the Inspectors General of numerous federal departments. These recommendations have been available to Congress and the Executive Branch, but have not yet been acted upon. This report is being sent to both Congress and Bush Administration officials who can make a change in how the government spends hard-earned tax dollars. We hope as you review deficit reduction options, you will consider our proposals to cut government waste and avoid a tax increase.

Our event will take place in the Cannon Caucus Room in the Cannon House Office Building. I look forward to your participation.

Keyes President June 5, 1990 The Honorable John H. Sununu Chief of Staff to the President The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Governor Sununu, As you continue discussions at the budget summit, Citizens Against Government Waste (CAGW) would like you to consider the attached compilation of waste-cutting recommendations which could save almost $305 billion over the next five years -- without raising taxes. We agree that the deficit must come down. On behalf of CAGW's 350,000 members, we believe that in fairness to the American taxpayer, government waste must come down first. The enclosed material demonstrates that the $60 billion deficit reduction target which some participants in the summit have cited for fiscal year 1991 can be met without a tax increase. The proposals come from numerous sources, and are just examples of the waste-cutting possibilities. As CAGW uncovers new evidence of waste, we will update participants in the budget summit over the course of the negotiations. In the enclosed full-page Washington Post advertisement, CAGW called for the establishment of a bipartisan council of private sector and public investigative leaders. We urge you to consider the use of such a council to assist your budget negotiations. Such a bipartisan group would provide an objective evaluation of the waste-cutting potential of various recommendations. With all of the available evidence of the extent of government waste, we urge you to seriously consider and adopt these proposals. The American people deserve nothing less.

Our membership strongly urges that you vote against passage of legislation that reimposes quotas in hiring and promotion. As police officers in San Francisco, we have long labored under a consent decree that has been used as a vehicle to deny equal treatment for our membership. Your long and well regarded support for law enforcement has prompted this request for assistance. Even at this late hour we know that you will give this important issue your close attention and support. In support of our position, I am sending you information which may be a value in documenting our case against quotas. Please contact Lou Calabro at (415) 553-1378 or Paul Chignell at (415) 554-6120 if further assistance or documentation is needed.
