DATE:
Friday, March 27, 1981
LOCATION: The Oval Office
TIME:
10:00 a.m. (20 minutes)
FROM:
MAX L. FRIEDERSDORF m.6
I. PURPOSE
To firm up these Republican members of the House Ways and
Means Committee to support the President's tax reduction bill.
II. BACKGROUND
The President met earlier with Rep. Barber Conable (R-N.Y.),
ranking Republican on House Ways and Means, to discuss strategy
on the tax bill. Conable pledged to remain firm for the
President's position rather than a compromise version that
Chairman Dan Rostenkowski (D-Ill.) is pushing. The eleven
other Republicans on the Committee are reportedly wavering
in their support for the President and this is the first
in a series of three meetings to buck up these Republicans.

TALKING POINTS
SUGGESTED TALKING POINTS FOR MEETING WITH
REPUBLICAN MEMBERS OF WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE
-- Indicate your awareness of Danny Rostenkowski's statement
that he believes there is no chance of passing the President's
tax program. (See Attachment 2)
-- Stress your intention to pursue the three-year tax cut and
urge Representatives Duncan, Archer and Frenzel to support
your tax cut proposals.
-- Emphasize that the tax cuts are an integral part of your
total economic package. Budget reductions alone will not
turn the economy around. We have to offset the crushing
tax burden now imposed on the American people.
-- Characterize Rostenkowski as being obstructionist by not
allowing the full House of Representatives to consider a
tax proposal that won the overwhelming mandate of the
American people last November.
-- Express your concern that Republicans may give up before the
battle is joined, and emphasize your determination to go to
the Nation if Ways and Means seeks to destroy your Economic
Recovery Program.
-- Enlist the three Congressmen's support, and solicit their advice
on how to counter attack the Democrats, and strengthen the
resolve of Republicans.

TALKING POINTS FOR ETHNIC SUPPORTERS MEETING
-- Good morning. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for
your support during the campaign. Your help was invaluable in getting
our message to some very important Americans--those of ethnic descent.
I can assure you that they will not be forgotten now that the election
is over. You will be adequately represented and in the years to come
I am looking forward to working closely with the leaders of the ethnic
communities around the nation to fulfill the pledges we made during
the campaign.
-- As I have stated during the campaign, when the family is unable to
provide for itself, some government assistance may be needed to
protect individual and family welfare. But such governmental assist-
ance must not intrude into nor be designed to control family life or
otherwise undermine the family.
-- In conjunction with my economic program, the most significant action
the government can take to help the American family is to make a bold
commitment to economic growth in our nation, thereby improving the
standard of living for all Americans and helping as many families as
possible to provide for themselves.
-- My commitment to Human Rights is stronger than ever. Increased fund-
ing, for example, for Radio Free Europe and Radio Liberty are a part
of my plan to advocate the need for freedom and self-expression around
the globe.
-- In my view, opposition to terrorism and communist aggression is and
must be an integral part of any serious commitment to the preservation
of Human Rights.

SUGGESTED TALKING POINTS
March 27, 1981
--
I am pleased to meet here with you, the Board of Directors
and State Representatives of Sister Cities International.
It is fitting that today we come together to celebrate the
twenty fifth anniversary of the Sister Cities program.
--
On this occasion, I am proud to accept the Honorary
Chairmanship of the United States Sister City Program.
And, I am pleased to note that the program has now grown
to include 702 American Cities united with 951 "Sister
Cities" in 77 countries around the world. When you
combine the populations of these cities, over 86 million
people are represented -- a tremendous "force for peace."
--
The Sister City Program is an outstanding example of how
city officials and private citizens from communities of
all sizes can work together to extend the hand of friend-
ship throughout the world. The program has provided a
meaningful dialogue through a variety of cultural, educa-
tional business and technical exchanges.
--
It is an exciting example of the vast impact that
citizen volunteers can have as representatives of their
country in a way that serves as a vital support to
traditional forms of international diplomacy.
