The Speaker has also agreed to talk to Bolling. There are several theories why Bolling is reluctant at this time to bring the bill to the floor. All agree, however, that your call is essential at this time. TALKING POINTS: 1. I want to thank you for your con­ siderable efforts on behalf of the cost containment bill thus far. You have given the bill a fair hearing and done your best to prepare the bill for floor consideration. 2. I strongly believe that the bill should come to�the floor this week. Our experience has been that we have lost strength over district work periods. If the bill is not disposed of before the Thanksgiving recess, Congressmen will be subject to intense lobbying on their home turf.

    Filed for intro on 04/16/96 SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION 466 By Cooper A RESOLUTION to honor Congressman James H. Quillen on his meritorious service to the nation and the State of Tennessee. WHEREAS, it is fitting that the elected representatives of the state of Tennessee should pause to pay tribute to our colleague, Congressman James H. Quillen of Kingsport, who has served the good people of the First Congressional District with the utmost in probity, industry and integrity for the past thirty-four years; and WHEREAS, first elected to represent Northeast Tennessee in the 88th Congress in 1963, Jimmy Quillen has the longest consecutive service of any congressman in Tennessee’s history; and WHEREAS, his seventeen terms and thirty-four years in Congress have indeed been both eventful and productive; his record of public service should be emulated by all those who seek public office, but it is not likely that his legacy of achievement will soon be equaled; and WHEREAS, the dean of Tennessee’s Congressional delegation, Jimmy Quillen serves as Chairman Emeritus of the House Rules Committee on which he has served astutely since 1965; and WHEREAS, he also serves with acumen and dedication as vice-chairman of the Legislative and Budget Process Subcommittee, chairman of the TVA Caucus, and as a member of the Republican Policy Committee; and WHEREAS, for ten years, Congressman Quillen was an instrumental leader in the ultimately successful initiative to establish a medical school at East Tennessee State University; 01576034 this medical school has now been named in his honor as the James H.
