MEETING WITH THE HOUSE REPUBLICAN WHIPS
Tuesday, April 13, 1976
8:00-9:00 a.m. (60 minutes)
The Cabinet Room
From: Max L. Friedersdorf m.6
I. PURPOSE
To comply with a request by Bob Michel and the 16
Whips for a meeting with the President prior to the
Easter Recess.
II. BACKGROUND, PARTICIPANTS AND PRESS PLAN
A. Background:
1. At the last Republican leadership meeting, Bob Michel
requested that Jack Marsh and Max Friedersdorf schedule
a meeting with the President prior to the Easter Recess
(April 15-26) for the 16 Republican Whips.
2. Mr. Michel mentioned that during the last few meetings
with the Whips, there was some noticeable discontent
and general grumbling. Mr. Michel feels that if the
Whips could meet with the President and air their
thoughts, it would greatly improve the Whips' feelings
and boost their morale. Bob Michel selected all of
the Whips when he became Minority Whip and this is the
second term they are serving as Whips.
3. A number of complaints will be raised by Michel and his
Whips. Topics will include: patronage, closure of
military bases, alleged unresponsiveness of Cabinet
Members to Republican Congressmen, insufficient notice
on vetoes and Administration positions on significant
legislation.
4. The Whips also would like a group picture with the
President.
B. Participants: See TAB A
C. Press Plan: Announce meeting; White House photographer only.
III. TALKING POINTS
1. Bob Michel requested at the last Republican Leadership
meeting that I meet with the House Republican Whips.
2. I am delighted to do SO. I also understand there are a
number of topics you wish to cover.
3. Bob, why don't you begin and I will be pleased to respond.
