Coors Chief Executive Officer Coors Brewing Company Golden, Colorado 80401-1295 Dear Mr. Coors: Thank you for writing to share with me your company's efforts and commitment to preventing underage drinking. The encouraging fact that alcohol-related fatalities among teenagers have dropped by 50 percent over the past ten years is due in no small part to private sector educational initiatives like yours. The Clinton Administration is also working hard to prevent underage drinking and drunk driving accidents. For example, the Department of Transportation's Safe and Sober Campaign will focus its programming efforts to target youth during April, May, and June -- in time for prom and graduation season. In addition, we have given grants to the International Association of Chiefs of Police so they can sponsor a series of state workshops on the enforcement of underage drinking laws. Thank you again for writing. Sincerely yours, Hillary Rodham Clinton Children p Need Coors® Coors Brewing Company R Golden, Colorado 80401-1295 February 21, 1995 Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton The First Lady The White House Rm. 2/WW 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., N.W. Washington, DC 20500 Dear Mrs. Rodham Clinton: A while back, a newspaper reporter described the Coors family as "among the bluntest, most straightforward people around." I'm not sure he intended it as a compliment. But as I see it, if you have something to say, particularly something important, "blunt" beats "blurry" every time. We've heard for years from some in the media and various critics of our business that brewers really wanted underage young people to drink. This in spite of the fact that we and other brewers fund many solid efforts to discourage underage drinking (the enclosed brochure describes our programs). The simple truth is: We do not want underage consumers, period. No brewer I know wants them. No parent I know wants it. Maybe it is time for bluntness. So, in a commercial we made recently, I address young people who might be thinking about drinking before they're 21. I tell them precisely what I've told my own children countless times. Looking right in their eyes, I say, "Do us, and yourself, a favor. Please don't." As a public policy maker, I know you are asked to "do something" about the problems of underage consumption. And often the response is restrictive, product control oriented legislation which, while well intentioned, doesn't do much to help solve these problems. There are, however, areas such as youth development block grants supports community based prevention efforts where Federal involvement can help. I encourage you to consider proposals Senator Kassebaum and Representative Goodling are working on in this area. Bottom line, no one approach, no one program, indeed no one commercial is the sole answer to this serious problem. But taken altogether, education and prevention programs are working. And our blunt imperative "Don't"- lets everybody know where Coors stands. When it comes to reducing underage drinking, we will not fail from lack of resolve. Sincerely, Peth be Com Peter H. Coors Chief Executive Officer Enclosure DRINK SAFELY PHOTOCOPY PRESERVATION Brewing beer has been a topic of conversation around my family's house since I can remember. SO BELIEVE ME, I know you might think about drinking before you're 21. But do us AND YOURSELF A favor, please don't. We'll wait for your business.

Washington Boulevard Milwaukee, WI 53213 Dear Ms. Crowley: Thank you for writing to share with me information about temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disfunction and related myofascial pain disorders. I was particularly interested to hear about the leadership of the National Institutes of Health in the effort to get more data about how to treat TMJ disorders. So much damage has been caused by TMJ implants and inappropriate treatments. You and your organization are to be commended for encouraging reliable research that will help us move forward in finding safe and effective treatments for TMJ. You also raised the issue of federal funding for TMJ re- search. The President's proposed 1996 budget includes $4.3 million for TMJ research at the National Institute of Dental Research (NIDR), an increase of 34 percent over fiscal year 1993. As you know, NIDR has supported a number of research projects dealing with TMJ disorders, including the first clinical study comparing surgical and non-surgical treatments in the management of patients with temporomandibular joint disc displacements, the development of research diagnostic criteria for temporomandibular disorders, and the development of alternative therapies to manage pain through combinations of drugs as well as non-drug treat- ments. Representatives from NIDR testified before Congressional budget committees last week. It is my sincere hope that Congress will grant the President's budget request to support these important research efforts. Thank you again for writing.

At my request, you asked Senator Robb to deliver information concerning these issues to the President's Task Force on Health Care Reform. I received a copy of a cover letter dated 5/6/93 which Senator Robb enclosed with my packet to Mrs. Clinton (copy enclosed). A lot has happened during the past 12 months that I believe will be of interest to the First Lady and her family. I'm asking that you pass along the enclosed information to Senator Robb with the request that he delivers it to Mrs. Clinton on my behalf.

WI TELEPHONE (414) 259-3223 MII WAUKEE WI JENNIFER HUTCHINSON JOHN A RUGGLES FAX (414) 259-8112 VICE PRESIDENT/SECRETARY CUYAHOGA FALLS OHIO WINCHESTER, VA May 6, 1994 Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton Dear Mrs. Clinton: The TMJ Association, Ltd., is a national 501(c)3 organization founded to promote awareness of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders; support and education for TMJ patients; and to encourage basic and clinical research which will ultimately lead to scientifically proven treatment modalities, resulting in a greatly improved quality of health care and life for the TMJ patients of this country. I (b)(6) The second reason for this letter is our general concern for how this disorder relates to the health care reform legislation pending in Congress. April 17-20, the National Institutes of Health held the first International Workshop on the Temporomandibular Disorders and Related Pain Conditions. It was concluded that there is little or no scientific data to support most of the treatment modalities currently being utilized; that the resulting damage to the patient is potentially devastating; and the need for basic research to address the TMJ problem is great. The NIH will shortly disseminate these recommendations and, in several months, the proceedings of the workshop will be published. This information is important in its relationship to health care coverage, in that it is imperative that scientifically proven treatment modalities be included while we concurrently go forward with research protocols. Though few, there are some therapies that are reversible, conservative, and effective for alleviating pain. There is another issue -- that of the TMJ implant patient. Many are suffering craniofacial and systemic pathology as a result of having these implants. They have been harmed by materials approved by the government and should have all health care costs covered by a health care policy -- again, while research is conducted to find ways to halt, reverse, or manage the damage experienced by these people. A PRIVATE, NON-PROFIT 501(c)(3) ORGANIZATION We hope you will find our information helpful. We are to here to answer any questions your family may have. We would also appreciate your cooperation with us in our attempt to have this disorder emphatically addressed by the Appropriations Committees of Congress so that research on TMJ disorders and implant pathology goes forward in this upcoming budget year.
