Students were seated in alphabetical order, and the Arthur Sweeney next to him was black. ``I didn't have to go too far to appreciate civil rights and all the equality issues, Sweeney said. ``One Sweeney was as good as another. Sweeney and incumbent AFL-CIO President Thomas Donahue are locked in a bitter fight to control the 13.3 million-member federation this week. But there's no argument between these 60-something white males about the need to involve more women and minorities in the labor movement. Convention delegates began taking up several proposals Wednesday aimed at getting blacks, Latinos and women involved at all levels of the federation. ``If we don't come out of this convention with a solid expression of diversity, with some ways of showing the faces of our membership at the highest levels of the governance of the AFL-CIO, we will have failed, said Sweeney, president of the Service Employees International Union, the federation's third-largest union, with more than 1 million members. The federation hierarchy traditionally has been a bastion of older white males who dealt with internal politics privately. But there's nothing traditional about this year's convention. ``To restore this federation to its rightful place at the center of national life and destiny, we must make the right choices today, Donahue said. We must build a movement that's broadly reflective of the work force, and serves their interests always. Of the federation's 78 affiliated unions, only three, representing professional athletes, school administrators and government employees, are led by black men. Just two, representing flight attendants and retail workers, are led by women. Two of the black men are on the federation's 35-member executive council. Three women, including one black and one Hispanic, serve on the council. One of the proposals being discussed would increase the executive council by six seats that would be designated for women and minorities. Others would expand the executive council to all 78 affiliated unions, and use some of the extra seats to ensure that the council adequately represented the diversity of their workers. Sweeney wants to create a new position, executive vice president, and give it to Linda Chavez-Thompson, who is running in the third slot on his ticket. Donahue chose a woman, Barbara Easterling, as his secretary-treasurer. Many on the Donahue side suggest a new position smacks of ARMS Email System Page 2 of 2 tokenism, and that if Sweeney were sincere about diversity he would have chosen a woman or a minority, instead of United Mine Workers President Rich Trumka, to run for the No. 2 slot on his ticket. ``We really wanted to clearly show that we were committed to establishing this third officer, not only for the outreach, but also to reflect the diversity of the federation, Sweeney said in reply. Union officials recognize they must organize more women and minorities if organized labor is to have any chance of gaining more influence. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the number of women age 16 and older in the work force grew from about 40 million to 51 million between 1983 and 1994, but the percentage of women who were union members dropped from 14.6 percent to 12.9 percent. Black and Hispanic workers over 16 years old numbered 13.8 million in 1983 and 22.2 million in 1994. Union membership among blacks and Hispanics dropped from 24.1 percent to 17.4 percent during the same period. Lenore Miller, president of the 75, 000-member Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union, said fighting for issues such as child care `will bring people into the movement. John Sturdivant, president of the 153, 000-member American Federation of Government Employees, who is black, said training minorities to be effective labor leaders at the local level is as important as opening up the federation's top ranks. ``As they develop those skills and abilities, there will be less opposition to electing them to top positions, he said. Sturdivant says he needs to recruit 35,000 new union members each year to maintain membership rolls, SO reaching out to minorities is ``a survival issue. Having representatives who are women and minorities helps. ``It helps if you send people to do the organizing who look like the people you're trying to organize, he said.

Cabinet affairs (Ann Maguire) has asked me whether this is a budget group priority and I have told them that it was - it would help if any or all of you could add your support to my effort, so that Cabinet affairs indeed knows this is a priority.

Diane October 25, 1995 Mr. John J. Sweeney International President Service Employees International Union, AFL-CIO, CLC 1313 L Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20005 Dear John: Thank you for your recent letter on the importance of providing worker protections as part of welfare reform. I agree that welfare reform is about helping people to work their way out of poverty, not pitting low-income workers off against one another. As you know, the welfare reform legislation I sent Congress last year, the Work and Responsibility Act of 1994, included strong provisions to prevent displacement. My Administration will make every effort to ensure that the House-Senate welfare reform conference incorporates and strengthens the anti- displacement protections in the Senate-passed bill. My Administration is also concerned that there be safeguards to ensure program integrity and accountability for federal funds. We would support stronger measures to guard against possible program abuses, including audits of nongovernmental organizations, provisions to safeguard confidentiality, and provisions for competitive bidding. Secretary Shalala has made these concerns clear in her views letter to the House and Senate welfare reform conferees. We look forward to working with you to see that the conference produces the best possible bill with respect to these and other areas of mutual concern. Thank you for your letter.

Could you please run these by Harold and get back to me before you guys leave. Thanks. 1. Sweeney wants to meet with Harold and Leon, face to face, this week on the upcoming budget negotiations. He stressed the "this week" part. Does Harold want to do this? Should I go ahead and schedule with Jen? Does Harold want it to be someone other than Leon (i.e. Rivlin, Tyson, etc?). I should let them know by the end of the day if this can happen this week, or if it needs to be next week or if it needs to be with other people. 2. The AFL is TODAY making final decisions on their activities for the endgame of this budget stuff. Jerry is going to walk me through it. I assume it will involve advertisements, grassroots activities, etc. Who should I check this plan with in the WH? Does Harold want to be in on it? McCurry? Sperling? Sosnik? 3. The AFL needs this week to decide whether to have merely an Executive Council meeting in January, or a whole Board meeting. They need to have one or the other and need to decide which. They will only have the EC meeting (which is smaller) unless we agree that it would be good for them to endorse in January. If so, they would have a full board meeting in January and endorse then. So the question for us, is when do we want an AFL endorsement -- and we need to let them know SO they can mail the right invitations out to their January meeting. If Harold knows already the answer, please e-mail me back. Otherwise, let me know who I should check with who should be the decisionmakers on this question. Thanks.

As it is getting late, I will have Daniel walk it over to him and won't wait to discuss it with him. The decision needs to be made as soon as possible, so please have him look at it and get it to the President today. 4.

Barkeloo ( BARKELOO_S ) TEXT: WHITE HOUSE WEIGHS VETO OF NHS BILL, BUT CLINTON STILL EXPECTED TO SIGN Although some administration officials have reportedly been urging a veto of the National Highway System bill, President Clinton appeared likely Nov. 27 to sign the measure into law soon, thereby freeing up billions in highway construction funds. While the administration remains concerned about the legislation's repeal of the federal speed limit and other highway safety laws, officials said late in the day that Clinton may sign the bill (S 440) as early as Nov. 28 in order for the funds to begin flowing to the states. With the deadline for enacting the bill already two months old, the White House is under pressure to approve the legislation and allow FY 1996 funds for the NHS and the interstate highway system to become available to the states. But officials also have been lobbied in recent days to veto the bill in order to prevent the safety law repeals from going into effect. Key administration officials met at the White House Nov. 27 to discuss the fate of the bill, including Federal Highway Administrator Rodney Slater, who earlier urged quick enactment of the bill. Although others raised concerns about the impact of the safety provisions, following the meeting officials were more optimistic that the president ultimately would sign the legislation, possibly before leaving late Nov. 28 for a European trip. The president was urged Nov. 27 by numerous transportation industry groups to sign the bill, with the Keep America Moving coalition saying in a letter that the delay the enacting the NHS has caused several states to put off highway projects because of insufficient funds. Those delays translate into lost jobs and a growing backlog of highway safety projects, the ARMS Email System Page 2 of 2 coalition said in the letter. Repeal Of Speed Limit Under Attack While the legislation remains on hold, states cannot receive any of their FY 1996 NHS or interstate maintenance funds. The funds have been withheld since Congress missed the Sept. 30 deadline for designating the priority road system. Although earlier the administration expressed support for the bill, in more recent days it raised concerns about the bill's repeal of the federal speed limit, as well as other provisions to abolish the program that encourages states to enact mandatory motorcycle helmet laws. The administration has also been under pressure from highway safety and insurance industry groups to veto the bill, with safety advocates saying that the bill could result in thousands of additional highway deaths and injuries ( 226 DER A-19, 11/24/95 ) Since it appeared likely that Congress this year would endorse repealing the 20-year-old federal speed limit, several states have taken steps to allow higher limits. Many are poised to increase maximum speeds to 70 m.p.h. or higher. Addition criticism was lodged recently by the International Brotherhood of Teamsters AFL-CIO, which called on the White House Nov. 21 to veto the NHS bill. In particular, the union raised concerns about the bill's provisions that could exempt nearly two million trucks or 40 percent of all commercial motor vehicles from federal safety rules. The vehicles that would be affected by the provision are small and medium size trucks weighing between 10,000 and 26,000 pounds. Highway Groups Respond To Criticisms Fearing that the bill was endangered by the various urgings for a presidential veto, highway groups then mounted their own lobbying campaign, calling on Clinton to sign the measure quickly. In the Nov. 27 letter, KAM officials said the legislation has broad bipartisan support on Capitol Hill, suggesting that a presidential veto might be easily overriden. Among other things, S 440 was approved 80-16 in the Senate. In the House, it was approved by unanimous consent after little debate. The coalition said the NHS actually could save lives because it will result in lane widening, clear zone enhancements, improved road alignments and other improvements that cut down on accidents. Since the Sept. 30 deadline was missed, $5.2 billion in FY 1996 funds have been withheld from the states, KAM said. During those eight weeks, several states have delayed bid-lettings, causing projects to be put off and jobs to be lost, it said. Among the groups signing the letter to Clinton were the American Trucking Associations, the Associated General Contractors, the Highway Users Federation, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Meanwhile, other groups also called on the president to sign the bill, with the American Road & Transportation Builders Association saying in a Nov. 27 letter that freeing up the NHS funds is crucial to current and future employment in the construction industry. NHS funds also are key to designing and building safety improvements into the nation's most heavily traveled roads, ARTBA said.

He laid out the devastating cuts the House gave the NLRB, and the basic impossibility of carrying out the NLRB's statutory mandates if the Senate and/or the President doesn't restore the funding. He also talked about some riders that would limit the NLRB's ability to issue injunctions. I gather all of these provisions are on the Labor-HHS approps bill. Separately, the AFL-CIO has been in to talk about their important issues, and the NLRB's funds and riders always come up. These issues were on a list given to Leon and Harold when John Sweeney came in to see them this past Tuesday. Could you let me know what our administration position is on the NLRB cuts specifically: are we pushing for full restoration? Would it be on the list of reasons we veto the bill?

In his view they have "at least" 200 votes in the House. I asked him how they would get around membership's fear of voting against "the elimination of an agency," and he said this would be a "labor vote." A vote for the conference report would be viewed as "anti-labor." They want the current law labor protection levels. Barring that, they want the Whitfield levels. While they "wouldn't object" to our pushing for merger review standards changes and elimination of anti-trust immunities, and the wasteful board, those issues will not be their focus. However, it is uncertain how they could get current law given that Congressmen Whitfield and Quinn have both rejected current law as a suitable outcome. I'll let you know what I learn as the day wears on. I am going to try to get a hold of a copy of the conference bill (400 pages) and report (100 pages). -Dan T.

Wyden tracking polls at the end of last week showing the two candidates even at 39%. Wyden and Smith have agreed to two televised debates to be held later this month. The first debate is scheduled for January 7 and will take place in Medford, Oregon. The second debate will be held in Portland on January 14. Both debates will be televised to a statewide audience. A possible third debate, hosted by the Portland City Club tentatively scheduled for January 5 has been put on hold due to Rep. Wyden's congressional schedule in D.C. The National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee (NRSCC) filed a federal election complaint last week alleging that labor and abortion rights groups are planning to mount illegal campaigns on behalf of Wyden. The NRSCC has accused the AFL 11 -CIO and the National Abortion and Reproductive Rights Action League (NARAL) of planning to spend large amounts of money on independent campaigns to support Wyden. The complaint also charges that because Wyden's campaign manager, Amy Chapman, has strong ties to organized labor, any spending by the AFL [] -CIO on behalf of Wyden should be considered illegal. The Wyden campaign has called the allegation by the NRSCC "totally false." Retiring Senator Mark Hatfield (R) endorsed Smith in a television ad aired during the Christmas holidays. The endorsement comes as somewhat of a surprise, since Smith had been severely critical of ARMS Email System Page 2 of 2 Hatfield for casting the decisive Senate vote against a balanced budget amendment earlier this year. The endorsement is seen as a boost for Smith among moderate Republicans and conservative Democrats who've crossed party lines to vote for Hatfield in the past. In other campaign events, a Portland television station recently threatened legal action against the Smith campaign for using footage which the station deemed a "violation of copyright laws." The controversy started when the Smith campaign produced a television ad which used footage of Democratic candidate Ron Wyden's inability to answer questions in a now -notorious "pop quiz." KOIN -TV, which originally shot the footage, had said that such unauthorized use of its material violated legal copyright protections. The television station has since backed -off it's legal claim, and the Smith campaign continues to run the ad in a heavy buy rotation. Both campaigns are receiving extensive surrogate help. Jack Kemp and Senator Fred Thompson (R -TN) were in Oregon last week campaigning with Smith. Meanwhile, former Texas Governor Ann Richards (D) is expected to travel to Oregon for an evening fundraiser on January 15 with Wyden. Also on January 15, Senator Barbara Boxer will be in Oregon to campaign with Wyden, while Senator Bob Kerrey is expected to travel to Oregon this weekend.

The President's fight for Medicare and Medicaid is especially important to women: Of the 37 million Medicare recipients, over 20 million, or 57 percent are women. Nearly 5 million or 23 percent of women aged 65 or older depend solely on Medicare to help with their medical bills. Nearly 70 percent of Medicaid beneficiaries between ages of 18 and 64 are women and 60 percent of all Medicaid beneficiaries are women. President Clinton will make the cuts we need to balance the budget, but he refuses to make cuts into our fundamental American values. The President and Vice President Meet Women Leaders At the Table President Clinton and Vice President Gore met with women leaders ARMS Email System Page 2 of 6 on Dec. 20 in the Cabinet Room to discuss the importance of putting a woman's face on the issues. The President asked them for their help in getting the specifics about the impact of Republican cuts in such areas as education and the environment out to women. The meeting was attended by: Pat Reuss, NOW Legal Defense Fund; Marcy Love, Personal PAC; Hedy Ratner, Women's Business Development Center; Marilyn Monahan, National Education Association; Audrey Tayse Haynes, Business and Professional Women/USA; Linda Chavez Thompson, AFL-CIO; Nancy Zirkin, American Association of University Women; Judy Lichtman, Women's Legal Defense Fund; Marcia Greenberger, National Women's Law Center; Geraldine Marullo, American Nurses Association; Deb Briceland Betts, Older Women's League; Judith Conover, League of Women Voters; Gloria Johnson, Coalition of Labor Union Women; Nancy Chupp, Church Women United; Elisa Sanchez, Mexican American National Women's Association. [_] Clinton Administration Giving Women a Voice At the Table The White House Office for Women's Initiatives and Outreach (The Women's Office) has launched its main outreach initiative called At the Table. Presidential appointees are holding roundtables with women across the nation to hear their concerns and ideas. Reports from these roundtables are coming back to The White House and a monthly report will be sent to -continued- Page 2 Newsletter 4 the President to ensure that women have a voice at the policy table. (More than 100 roundtables have been held and more than 1,000 women across the U.S. have participated.) Some of the topics being discussed: The Budget: Women are concerned that their families and children will be the losers with budget cuts and block granting. Welfare Reform: Women believe that the Congressional welfare reform bill should be vetoed because it will have a strong adverse impact on women. Choice: Women want to prevent any legislative setbacks to a woman's right to choose. Crime/Domestic Violence: Women are proud that the President has taken a leadership role on domestic violence. Women are also very concerned about violence in schools. Health Care: Women are afraid of losing their health insurance. They have concerns also about the quality of health care available to them. Education: Women want stronger investment in early childhood education. Affirmative Action: Women express a strong desire to continue affirmative action. Childcare: Women express a need for greater access to affordable quality childcare for all families. Vice President Stresses Administration's Pro-Family Budget Vice President Gore addressed approximately 800 guests on Nov. 29 at the General Assembly of Women of Reform Judaism, the women's arm of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations. The Vice President stressed the Administration's pro-family stand in the ARMS Email System Page 3 of 6 budget debate by questioning the Republican budget on several points: " how can you say you're for working families if you try to cut the Earned Income Tax Credit and increase their taxes? How can you say you are for the middle class if you make it harder for middle class families to pay for college or afford health care for their parents? How can you say you're for welfare reform if you're willing to push a million children into poverty? And how can you say you're for the well-being of all Americans if you propose to virtually dismantle all of our public health and environmental protections?" Dr. Laura Tyson Speaks to National Committee on Pay Equity Dr. Tyson spoke to the National Committee on Pay Equity on Nov. 28. She spoke about the budget debate and the Administration's objective to restore fiscal responsibility in such a way that we also address our society's major difficulties. She listed some of the President's economic successes: -The deficit has come down 50 percent since fiscal year 1992. -The deficit is at a 17-year low compared to the size of the economy. Secretary Shalala Unveils PSA's on AIDS Prevention Secretary Shalala on Nov. 30 joined White House AIDS Policy Coordinator Patsy Fleming to unveil a new series of public service announcements about AIDS prevention. The series emphasizes the need for personal responsibility in preventing AIDS transmission. -continued- Page 3 Newsletter 4 Ellen Haas Speaks Out for School Lunches and Food Safety Net Under Secretary for Food and Consumer Services Ellen Haas continues to stress that feeding the needy is a shared public-private partnership. At the Union Station Foundation emergency shelter in Pasadena Calif., Haas said recently: " the federal government must take the primary responsibility for providing a national nutrition safety net. Congressional welfare reform efforts avoid taking this responsibility. The deep cuts in the Food Stamp and Child Nutrition Programs and the optional Food Stamp block grants in the budget reconciliation bill would place an enormous burden on the private sector that they could not possibly carry. Women Who Are Making a Differencee for Other Women With each newsletter, we will highlight some of the Presidential appointees who are inviting women to join them At the Table. In this issue, they are: Chantale Wong, senior advisor to the Director at OMB; Anne Elliott, Department of Energy; and Marie-Louise Caravatti, Department of Commerce. Chantale met with Asian Business women in San Francisco and discussed several topics including welfare reform, immigration, the budget and Medicaid cuts. Anne Elliott met with businesswomen and attorneys in Chicago with Russian women visitors looking on to learn the American policy process. Marie-Louise Caravatti met with the state's most ARMS Email System Page 4 of 6 influential women leaders from the private and public sectors in Wilmington, Delaware. "For this group, turning our problems over to the invisible hand of the private sector was not seen as a solution, Marie-Louise wrote in her report to The Women's Office. Be Counted, Get Included in Women Presidential Directory Currently, more than 42 percent of President Clinton's appointments are women. He has appointed more women to serve in his Administration than any President. We have six-Cabinet level appointees who are women and there are about 2,500 women appointees throughout the Administration. To help identify who is serving where, The Women's Office is working to publish a directory of women Presidential appointees to share with women groups and women appointees. To get included call The Women's Office, 202-456-7300. Briefing for Women Appointees The White House press and communications teams briefed women appointees on Dec. 13 in the OEOB on the Administration's message and priorities and the importance of At the Table outreach. Those briefing the women included Evelyn Lieberman, Mike McCurry, Don Baer and Peggy Lewis. Also briefing the group was Tony Lake who discussed Bosnia. The Women's Office organizes a briefing each month as well as a social event. Gloria Steinem will speak at a briefing soon.

And we could schedule him to address Rosenthal's group Monday. And we can see if the Executive Council wants to hear a speech too. The reason this is all SO up in the air is the AFL-CIO wants this to be low key and to accomplish that, they are considering barring all non-labor individuals from the whole meeting. But they have not decided this yet - - and I'm sure they will end up not deciding to do this. But because it is all up in the air, they have not invited anyone to anything and they have no agenda.

This debate is about people, the lives they lead, the hopes they have, the desires they have for a better life." ARMS Email System Page 4 of 7 President Clinton, December 9, 1995, Radio Address PRINTER FONT 12_POINT_HELVETICA President Fights for a Budget Good for Women and Families PRINTER FONT 12_POINT_ROMAN President Clinton continues to fight to balance the budget and to prevent wrongheaded cuts and misplaced priorities that will unfairly hurt women and families. The President's fight for Medicare and Medicaid is especially important to women: O Of the 37 million Medicare recipients, over 20 million, or 57 percent are women. O Nearly 5 million or 23 percent of women aged 65 or older depend solely on Medicare to help with their medical bills. O Nearly 70 percent of Medicaid beneficiaries between ages of 18 and 64 are women and 60 percent of all Medicaid beneficiaries are women. President Clinton will make the cuts we need to balance the budget, but he refuses to make cuts into our fundamental American values. PRINTER FONT 12_POINT_HELVETICA The President and Vice President Meet Women Leaders At the Table PRINTER FONT 12_POINT_ROMAN President Clinton and Vice President Gore met with women leaders on Dec. 20 in the Cabinet Room to discuss the importance of putting a woman's face on the issues. The President asked them for their help in getting the specifics about the impact of Republican cuts in such areas as education and the environment out to women. The meeting was attended by: Pat Reuss, NOW Legal Defense Fund; Marcy Love, Personal PAC; Hedy Ratner, Women's Business Development Center; Marilyn Monahan, National Education Association; Audrey Tayse Haynes, Business and Professional Women/USA; Linda Chavez Thompson, AFL -CIO; Nancy Zirkin, American Association of University Women; Judy Lichtman, Women's Legal Defense Fund; Marcia Greenberger, National Women's Law Center; Geraldine Marullo, American Nurses Association; Deb Briceland Betts, Older Women's League; Judith Conover, League of Women Voters; Gloria Johnson, Coalition of Labor Union Women; Nancy Chupp, Church Women United; Elisa Sanchez, Mexican American National Women's Association. PRINTER FONT 12 POINT HELVETICA Clinton Administration Giving Women a Voice At the Table PRINTER FONT 12POINT_ROMAN The White House Office for Women's Initiatives and Outreach (The Women's Office) has launched its main outreach initiative called At the Table. Presidential appointees are holding roundtables with women across the nation to hear their concerns and ideas. Reports from these roundtables are coming back to The White House and a monthly report will be sent to -continued- Page 2 Newsletter 4 ARMS Email System Page 5 of 7 the President to ensure that women have a voice at the policy table. (More than 100 roundtables have been held and more than 1,000 women across the U.S. have participated.) Some of the topics being discussed: O The Budget: Women are concerned that their families and children will be the losers with budget cuts and block granting. O Welfare Reform: Women believe that the Congressional welfare reform bill should be vetoed because it will have a strong adverse impact on women. O Choice: Women want to prevent any legislative setbacks to a woman's right to choose. O Crime/Domestic Violence: Women are proud that the President has taken a leadership role on domestic violence. Women are also very concerned about violence in schools. O Health Care: Women are afraid of losing their health insurance. They have concerns also about the quality of health care available to them. O Education: Women want stronger investment in early childhood education. O Affirmative Action: Women express a strong desire to continue affirmative action. O Childcare: Women express a need for greater access to affordable quality childcare for all families. PRINTER FONT 12_POINT_HELVETICA Vice President Stresses Administration's Pro Family Budget PRINTER FONT 12_POINT_ROMAN Vice President Gore addressed approximately 800 guests on Nov. 29 at the General Assembly of Women of Reform Judaism, the women's arm of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations. The Vice President stressed the Administration's pro family stand in the budget debate by questioning the Republican budget on several points: II how can you say you're for working families if you try to cut the Earned Income Tax Credit and increase their taxes? How can you say you are for the middle class if you make it harder for middle class families to pay for college or afford health care for their parents? How can you say you're for welfare reform if you're willing to push a million children into poverty? And how can you say you're for the well -being of all Americans if you propose to virtually dismantle all of our public health and environmental protections?" PRINTER FONT 12 POINT HELVETICA Dr. Laura Tyson Speaks to National Committee on Pay Equity PRINTER FONT 12_POINT_ROMAN Dr. Tyson spoke to the National Committee on Pay Equity on Nov. 28. She spoke about the budget debate and the Administration's objective to restore fiscal responsibility in such a way that we also address our society's major difficulties. She listed some of the President's economic successes: -The deficit has come down 50 percent since fiscal year 1992. ARMS Email System Page 6 of 7 -The deficit is at a 17 -year low compared to the size of the economy. PRINTER FONT 12_POINT_HELVETICA Secretary Shalala Unveils PSA's on AIDS Prevention PRINTER FONT 12_POINT_ROMAN Secretary Shalala on Nov. 30 joined White House AIDS Policy Coordinator Patsy Fleming to unveil a new series of public service announcements about AIDS prevention. The series emphasizes the need for personal responsibility in preventing AIDS transmission. -continued- Page 3 Newsletter 4 PRINTER FONT 12_POINT_HELVETICA Ellen Haas Speaks Out for School Lunches and Food Safety Net PRINTER FONT 12_POINT_ROMAN Under Secretary for Food and Consumer Services Ellen Haas continues to stress that feeding the needy is a shared public -private partnership. At the Union Station Foundation emergency shelter in Pasadena Calif., Haas said recently: " the federal government must take the primary responsibility for providing a national nutrition safety net. Congressional welfare reform efforts avoid taking this responsibility. The deep cuts in the Food Stamp and Child Nutrition Programs and the optional Food Stamp block grants in the budget reconciliation bill would place an enormous burden on the private sector that they could not possibly carry. " PRINTER FONT 12 POINT_HELVETICA Women Who Are Making a Differencee for Other Women PRINTER FONT 12_POINT_ROMAN With each newsletter, we will highlight some of the Presidential appointees who are inviting women to join them At the Table. In this issue, they are: Chantale Wong, senior advisor to the Director at OMB; Anne Elliott, Department of Energy; and Marie -Louise Caravatti, Department of Commerce. Chantale met with Asian Business women in San Francisco and discussed several topics including welfare reform, immigration, the budget and Medicaid cuts. Anne Elliott met with businesswomen and attorneys in Chicago with Russian women visitors looking on to learn the American policy process. Marie -Louise Caravatti met with the state's most influential women leaders from the private and public sectors in Wilmington, Delaware. "For this group, turning our problems over to the invisible hand of the private sector was not seen as a solution, " Marie ARMS Email System Page 7 of 7 -Louise wrote in her report to The Women's Office. PRINTER FONT 12_POINT_HELVETICA Be Counted, Get Included in Women Presidential Directory PRINTER FONT 12_POINT_ROMAN Currently, more than 42 percent of President Clinton's appointments are women. He has appointed more women to serve in his Administration than any President. We have six -Cabinet level appointees who are women and there are about 2,500 women appointees throughout the Administration.

Sweeney wants to lay out his case against Alan Greenspan getting renominated. Sweeney feels a need to "discuss" with the White House before he goes public with his opposition. And Harold is the logical "White House" because Laura Tyson is trying to avoid having meetings on the subject with outsiders (so that she doesn't have to hear from everyone under the sun). Harold's job will be to listen and to relay to Laura the content of the meeting. (Harold and I discussed this briefly and he agreed he should talk to Sweeney.) ALSO Gerry Shea asked me today about monthly AFL-CIO meetings that used to happen with Harold, George, Reich, Rubin/Tyson, Sperling - - on policy stuff. They would like to reinstitute these.
