Congress of the United States
December 22, 1982
The President
The White House
Dear Mr. President:
We, the undersigned U.S. Senators and Congressmen, are writing to express
our hope that you will utilize in your Administration the skills, talents
and energies of your friend and our colleague, Bob Dornan.
Bob's skills, as you know, are many and highly regarded here on Capitol
Hill. He is a recognized defense and arms control expert and has a
unique "hands on" expertise in all aspects of military aviation technology.
Bob has ably defended on the floor of the Congress all aspects of your
defense program and every one of its long range objectives. It was no
accident that he earned the nickname, "B-1 Bob." As a member of the House
Foreign Affairs Committee he has spoken consistently and persuasively on
the threats to American interests in Central America, in Europe and in
Asia. In fact, there are very few members of Congress who have Bob's
broad exposure and experience throughout the full range of foreign policy
and defense issues. He has traveled to Central America and Southeast Asia
more often than any member of the House or Senate. He did an excellent
job on "Meet the Press" defending your Caribbean Basin Initiative.
Mr. President, whenever you have needed support on the floor of the House
Bob has been first in line. Unquestionably, he is one of the most know-
ledgeable and forceful speakers for our party both here in the Congress
and across the nation. His instant recall, command of statistics and ex-
tensive electronic media savvy, have made him a favorite of the press to
defend you -- and he does it quite well.
Bob's tireless efforts on the Aging Committee and particularly on the
Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control has distinguished him
as one of the House's hard workers. He has received bipartisan recogni-
tion for his seventeen years of dedicated work on behalf of our MIAs and
POWs as the only Republican chairman of any entity in the House, the Task
Force on American Prisoners and Missing in Southeast Asia. On economics,
from your tax cut to your tax bill, Bob has faithfully backed your Republican
economic program.
The President

Bob is one of the charter Reaganauts, one of the first six Congressmen
to endorse your 1980 presidential campaign and a 1968 and 1976 Reagan
stalwart. He campaigned in sixteen states for you in 1980 and raised
thousands of dollars for independent expenditure efforts. He is a team
player. No candidate from the 1982 California Republican Senate primary
worked harder than Bob for Senator-elect Pete Wilson in a maximum effort
to defeat Jerry Brown.
Mr. President, it is our strong belief that our colleague Robert K. Dornan
would be a real asset to you if used "to work" Capitol Hill on your
Administration's team. As a former member, Bob will have lifetime con-
gressional floor and cloakroom privileges. This is a valuable and unique
privilege for a team player in the Executive Branch. Simply put, Bob
would be a credit to your Administration in policy areas, particularly
those that relate to national security.
Respectfully yours,
