Please ask the Senator to discuss the role that a Republican controlled Senate will play in the final two years of President Clinton's administration. * Emphasize the need for Jon Kyl's election to the U.S. Senate. * Ari:zona is a critical state to the Republican Party's efforts to regain control of__ the U.S. Senate. * Jon Kyl is the candidate that can ensure our success in Arizona and Washington. * Emphasize that the Senate needs a Senator like Jon Kyl for the following reasons: * Jon Kyl is not a Washington political insider. He went to Washington seven years ago to change the ways Congress does business. * He led the effort to disclose the House bank scandal. • He has led efforts for campaign reform. * He has fought for a balanced budget amendment and line item veto. * Jon Kyl was elected to the House to make positive changes - he was successful. He will do the same in the Senate. * Thank them for their support of Jon. (Most of the individuals attending the briefing have maxed out and cannot contribute additional money to Jon's campaign - a few have pledged their maximum support - a very few have not yet made a major commitment of support.) * Ask them to continue to support Jon by assisting him with fund raising.

Most will ask questions about current issues. I would anticipate questions on the following issues: * U.S.'s role in Somalia and Haiti (most of the individuals in this group are opposed to the current Clinton plan; * U.S.'s role in the former Yugoslavia {one individual in the group, Clarence Duncan, has family in Yugoslavia and wants U.S. involvement in this region. Mr. Duncan is very outspoken, articulate, and a very good friend of Congressman Kyl); * Health Care Reform (this group is very opposed to the current Clinton plan) .
