PURPOSE To review the status of the Budget Conference Report, the Urgent Supplemental (which includes the housing bailout), and the upcoming debate in the House of Representatives on the MX program. II. BACKGROUND The House will consider the Budget Conference Report today (Tuesday) and it likely will be considered in the Senate on Wednesday. The Urgent Supplemental has passed the House, is pending on the Senate floor and will likely be passed this evening. You are meeting at 3:30 this afternoon with Senators Lugar and Garn on the housing bailout portion of the Urgent Supple- mental and the possibility of a veto. The defense authorization is tentatively scheduled for the week of July 12th in the House. There is concern that there will be ample funding authorized for the MX program in this bill. III.

The President asks Senator Howard Baker for a report on the Senate. General discussion. ATTACHMENT C TALKING POINTS I want to cover three items today, the first being the critical importance of the House and Senate passing the Budget Conference Report. The conference report (with a deficit of $103.9b) preserves our vital defense priorities, safeguards essential programs for the needy and limits new tax revenues to an acceptable level. It's essential that we signal for the second year in a row that a majority in the Congress is ready to take the kind of responsible action needed to restore our economic balance. (Turning to Bob Michel) I hope you will put the bipartisan coalition together again in the House and, you, Howard, will follow suit in the Senate. -- The second item is the Urgent Supplemental Conference Report which has passed the House and is now on the Senate floor. I understand it includes, besides urgently needed funds, over $3 billion for a housing bailout program. While I don't announce possible veto intentions until a bill reaches my desk -- and while I will be listening this after- noon to Senators Dick Lugar and Jake Garn about why I should sign this measure -- let me reemphasize my opposition to bail- outs.

Bail- outs for any one sector are likely to lead to bail-outs for others. They are, simply, budget-busters. -- Should I decide to veto the urgent supplemental because of the $3 billion housing bail-out, I hope my veto will be sustained and that the Congress will act quickly to send me a clean bill containing only those items urgently needed to continue FY82 activities. -- Now let me turn to the third topic, the M-X program and the House's consideration, after recess with the Defense Authorization bill. -- See attached talking points provided by NSC. B THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON BRIEFING MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT SUBJECT: TAX POLICY Tuesday, June 22, 1982 1:00 (60 minutes) The Cabinet Room FROM: RICHARD G. DARMAN as. CRAIG L. FULLER I. PURPOSE The meeting is to present you with Don Regan's recommendations re tax options. As you know, the budget resolution requires $20 billion in increased revenue for FY 1983. The Regan recommendations suggest how this additional revenue should be raised. Several things are noteworthy about the legislative context in which these recommendations are presented: (a) the budget resolution requires the Senate Finance Committee to produce a tax bill by July 12th; (b) Bob Dole wishes to complete mark-up by July 2nd -- and is waiting for guidance from the Administration; and (c) the House (Rostenkowski) seems to be just sitting back, watching and waiting.

Weidenbaum Michael K. Deaver John Chapoton (Treasury) III. AGENDA Don Regan will lead off with a presentation of his recommendations. Discussion will follow. Don will seek your guidance.

C THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON June 21, 1982 MEETING WITH TUITION TAX CREDIT LEADERS DATE: June 22, 1982 LOCATION: Roosevelt Room TIME: 2:15 - 2:20 p.m. FROM: ELIZABETH H. DOLE I. PURPOSE To thank the participants for their work to date on tuition tax credits, announce that your legislation is being submitted, and encourage their active support for its enactment. II. BACKGROUND You will be submitting your tuition tax credit bill to the Congress the day of this meeting. The people gathered in the room are leaders of the private educational community, both religious and non-religious. All support tuition tax credits in general, and your bill in particular. Prior to your arrival, they will have been briefed for approximately 45 minutes on the bill by representatives from the Office of Legislative Affairs and the Office of Policy Development. Your dropping by at this briefing is intended to demonstrate your personal commitment to tuition tax credits and to encourage the group's active support. III. PARTICIPANTS See attached list. IV. PRESS PLAN White House Photographer V. SEQUENCE OF EVENTS 2:15 p.m. You enter the Roosevelt Room with the Vice President and proceed to greet and shake hands with the participants, who will be seated at the table and along the walls. Having circled the room, you stand at the head of the table and make your remarks as per the talking points. 2:20 p.m. You thank your guests and depart the Roosevelt Room. (Note: The Vice President will remain after your departure.) Attachments: Talking Points, Participants SUGGESTED TALKING POINTS FOR MEETING WITH TUITION TAX CREDIT LEADERS -- As you know, I am today sending to the Congress my tuition tax credit legislation, officially known as "The Educational Opportunity and Equity Act of 1982." -- I wanted to meet with you briefly today to let you know that I am fully committed to this bill and to its enactment into law. -- But if we are to suceed, we are going to need the total and active support of yourselves and your organizations. There is opposition on the Hill to introducing revenue-reducing legislation at this time. And other groups, like NEA (National Educational Assocation), are certain to mount a vigorous campaign against us. -- I know many, if not all, of you in this room, had input into this bill. --- The bill, as a result, is most fair and equitable, and if given a chance, will pass on its merits. -- Therefore, while here to thank you for your efforts to date, I'm here, as I said, to seek your support for this legislation and to let you know that, working together, we will see this bill passed into law. -- Thank you.

(45 MINUTES) LOCATION: CABINET ROOM FROM: CRAIG L. FULLER GS I. PURPOSE/BACKGROUND The Department of Transportation has been reviewing the Administration's maritime policy for the past several weeks. The policy questions have been and will continue to be presented in the Cabinet Council on Commerce and Trade. However, Transpor- tation is at a crossroads from a strategic stand- point. We need to choose between continuing to subsidize the maritime industry, which Secretary Lewis will recommend, or steadily reducing the subsidies to the industry which will cause even more rapid deterioration of the industry. Because of your support for the industry in the past and the need to make a strategic determina- tion as to the most desirable way to proceed, this briefing session has been scheduled to apprise you of the considerations now under review. Secretary Lewis' presentation will include a discussion of the present situation in the maritime industry, the options for future action and the general consequences associated with the two principle paths: subsidizing the industry VS. no subsidies and international competition. After hearing the discussion (and perhaps giving the matter some thought after the meeting), your options are: 1. Ask Transportation to present a full range of options at a future Cabinet Council meeting (one problem with this is that we have had sessions on this subject where the papers are quickly leaked); 2. Ask Transportation to present maritime subsidy options at an upcoming Cabinet Council meeting (consistent with campaign statements and politically helpful this year) ; 3. Ask Transportation to consider only minor steps this year to help the industry and defer consideration of major subsidy questions until after the election (avoids confronting this constituency until after the election which would be wise if, in fact, we are not going to support some form of a significant subsidy package).

THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON June 21, 1982 MEETING WITH SENATOR RICHARD LUGAR (R-INDIANA) AND SENATOR JAKE GARN (R-UTAH) DATE: Tuesday, June 22, 1982 LOCATION: The Oval Office TIME: 3:30 p.m. (20 minutes) FROM: Kenneth M. Duberstein Ken D. I. PURPOSE To respond to Senator Lugar's request for an opportunity to discuss the housing stimulus provisions of the supplemental appropriation bill prior to any decision with regard to a veto of the legislation. II. BACKGROUND Senator Dick Lugar (R-Indiana) is the author of a major housing stimulus bill to which the Administration has consistently expressed its opposition. The Lugar proposal was passed by a vote of 69-23 in the Senate as an amendment to the supplemental appropriation bill. The Lugar stimulus bill was modified somewhat in conference to accom- modate a substantially different housing stimulus provision in the House-passed supplemental bill. Both the House and the Senate have adopted the Conference Report with the modified Lugar housing stimulus proposal in it. Senator Lugar continues to feel that his proposal is misunderstood by the Administration and has asked for an opportunity to meet with you on this issue before you make a decision to veto the supplemental appropriation bill. Lugar has invited Senator Garn, Chairman of the Senate Banking Committee and a staunch supporter of the Lugar bill, to join him in this meeting. Senator Lugar is a staunch supporter of the Administration as are most of his Republican colleagues who co-sponsored his housing legislation. Lugar is up for re-election and has received a great deal of publicity on his housing proposal. He has been reluctant to appear at odds with the Administration but has been determined to pursue his proposal. All official public pronouncements from the Administration on this issue have been in opposition. Most recently, David Stockman sent a letter to all members of the Senate specifically stating the Administration's opposition to the Lugar housing stimulus package. The Stockman letter 2 indicated that senior advisors to the President would recommend a veto of the urgent supplemental appropriations conference report. Senator Lugar personally wrote a letter to all Senators in response to the Stockman letter. Among the points Lugar made in his letter are: 1. The housing stimulus is "a carefully drafted jobs bill which will substantially increase revenues coming to the Federal government." He has always characterized his bill as a jobs bill and not a housing bill; 2. the budget conference report provides money for the Lugar housing stimulus legislation and, therefore, it is inaccur- ate to refer to that legislation as "budget busting" and "bailout;" 3. the housing stimulus bill is compatible with your economic policies and would help lead the nation "toward a rebuild- ing of our economy with much less inflation, much less over regulation, much less taxation and much less Federal governmental spending."

He has always characterized his bill as a jobs bill and not a housing bill; 2. the budget conference report provides money for the Lugar housing stimulus legislation and, therefore, it is inaccur- ate to refer to that legislation as "budget busting" and "bailout;" 3. the housing stimulus bill is compatible with your economic policies and would help lead the nation "toward a rebuild- ing of our economy with much less inflation, much less over regulation, much less taxation and much less Federal governmental spending.'

SEQUENCE OF EVENTS Senators Lugar and Garn to arrive through Northwest Gate, enter the West Lobby, and be escorted to the Oval Office for a 20-minute meeting with the President. Attachment: Talking Points SUGGESTED TALKING POINTS FOR MEETING WITH SENATOR RICHARD LUGAR AND SENATOR JAKE GARN -- Senator Lugar has requested this meeting to make his case for the housing stimulus in the urgent supplemental appropriations bill before you decide whether to veto it. Indicate that you understand Lugar has pursued this legislation because of concern over unemployment and high interest rates and that this is a concern which you also share. Suggest that Lugar proceed to make his case. -- After Senator Lugar has concluded, mention that the White House consistently has expressed its opposition to the Lugar housing stimulus bill and its counterpart in the House of Representatives. This opposition has been based on both philosophical and practical reasons. -- A specific housing stimulus program would create enormous pressure for similar assistance for other industry which would in turn significantly worsen current deficit problems. -- Adding to the deficits will only add to financial market pressures and aggravate high interest rate levels -- the basic problems plaguing housing and other sensitive sectors. -- There is substantial evidence that the market is already working to revive housing without enactment of an expensive housing stimulus bill. New housing permits and housing starts have been up substantially in recent months. 2 -- The Administration has acted to permit private pension funds to invest more in real estate, to create more flexible mortgage instruments and reduce burdensome HUD regulation which inhibit housing construction. -- At the conclusion of your visit thank Senator Lugar for discussing this issue personally with you and tell him that you appreciate his motivation in terms of providing more jobs and a strong housing industry. Tell Lugar that this will, indeed, be a difficult decision for you and that you appreciate having the benefit of his input.

Well, we're delighted you could all come, and we have this chance to meet you. I feel a little like I'm seeing a premiere. Now I can say I've met the new superstars for the Congressional Class of 1983. We hope this will be just the first of many return visits to the White House. I'm supposed to be brief and I will be. I can sum up most of what I want to say in about three thoughts: Go get 'em; you can do it; we're behind you all the way. You will be hearing a lot of charges levelled against Republicans in the weeks ahead. Just remember something Abraham Lincoln once said: "Truth is generally the best vindication against slander." To listen to many of our liberal friends complain about deficits, you might think someone else was planning to do the red-ink spending. To listen to them scream about 16½ percent interest rates, you might forget they were the ones who left us 21½ percent interest rates, and a trillion dollar debt. To listen to them cry for more compassion, you would never know they want to pick the pockets of the middle-class, with more and more taxes. Well, if I may quote Honest Abe one more time: You can fool all of the people some of the time. You can fool some of the Page 2 people all of the time. But you cannot fool all the people, all the time, and we will not let them be fooled in November. If you go beyond the labels and propaganda, if you ask Americans to spell out what they want from this Government, their answers are clear and precise: They want inflation and interest rates brought down and kept down; they want the growth in spending and taxes cut; and they want our defenses built up, strong enough to deter aggression and protect the free world. You know something: that just happens to be our program for America, and we not only believe in it, we're proud of the progress we've made so far. If there's anything wrong with our program, it's not that we've gone too far. It's that we haven't gone far enough. We've only begun to cut the growth in spending and taxes. We need, and we're asking the Congress to pass, a constitutional amendment requiring a balanced Federal budget. Now our opponents are insisting the present recession was caused by our program, which has been on the books less than 9 months. May I just point out -- we had the recession before we got the program. Yes, unemployment is too high, but tragically, unemployment is always a lagging indicator. It begins to improve after recovery is already underway. I think it's significant that the number of Americans who are employed exceeds 100 million. Also, for the last 6 months inflation has been running at an annualized rate of only 2.0 percent, and just 2 years ago people said that could never be done in so short a time. This drop in inflation means over $1,000 in increased purchasing power for an average family of four with a fixed income of $15,000. We might see inflation bump up for a month or two, but the trend remains downward. When the special pleaders start campaigning against our budget cuts as penalizing the poor, when they assail our tax program as favoring the rich, that defense spending is too high, here are a few points to remember. Twenty years ago, during John F. Kennedy's Camelot, spending for human needs was 29 percent of his budget. Defense spending was 46 percent of his budget. In our proposed budget for '83 the social needs, the human needs total 51 percent of the budget and defense spending is only 29 percent. President Kennedy's tax cut program was greatly beneficial to the country. It was phased in over 2 years and gave 36 percent of the relief to corporations and 64 percent to individuals. Our program is phased in over 3 years and gives corporations 20 percent of the total and individuals 80 percent. And it's the middle-income taxpayers who will get the biggest share of our tax cut. The problems we inherited can't be cured overnight. But they can and will be cured with more good people like yourselves in the Congress. As I said, we're with you all the way. And now I think I'd better get down from here so I can shake your hands.
