SENATOR BOB DOLE
ROCHESTER GOP EVENT
AS A I MEET WITH CANDIDATES IN
WASHINGTON AND TRAVEL ACROSS THE
COUNTRY CAMPAIGNING, I SEE A LOT OF
SURVEY AND POLL NUMBERS. NOW, l'VE
BEEN A LITTLE BIT SKEPTICAL ABOUT
SURVEYS EVER SINCE MY POLLSTER
1
Page 1 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
WHISTLED "HAIL TO THE CHIEF" TO ME
HERE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE ... BUT WHEN
YOU SURVEY AFTER SURVEY AFTER
SURVEY SAYING THE SAME THING, YOU
BEGIN TO BELIEVE.
AND THE SURVEYS l'VE SEEN IN
THE PAST FEW WEEKS, IN EVER SECTION
OF THE COUNTRY, ARE ALL BRINGING
GOOD NEWS TO REPUBLICANS.
REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES ARE NOT ONLY
2
Page 2 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
AHEAD IN THE RACES WHERE WE
SHOULD BE AHEAD; BUT WE'RE ALSO
AHEAD IN RACES WHICH WE THOUGHT
WOULD BE VERY CLOSE, AND WE'RE
EVEN AHEAD OR CLOSE IN RACES THAT
WE HAD ALL BEEN WRITTEN OFF.
AND AS I LOOK AT THE SURVEYS,
ONE NUMBER COMES TO MY MIND. THE
NUMBER 47. A GAIN OF 40 SEATS IN
THE HOUSE, AND A GAIN OF 7 SEATS IN
3
Page 3 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
THE SENATE, WILL GIVE REPUBLICANS
CONTROL OF THE CONGRESS FOR THE
FIRST TIME IN 40 YEARS. AND WHEN
RENEE DAVISON IS ELECTED, THAT
NUMBER WILL BE 46.
THERE'S A LOT OF REASONS WHY
THE NUMBERS ARE GOING OUR WAY.
AND ONE REASON CAN BE SEEN IN THE
FACT THAT, ACCORDING TO ONE RECENT
SURVEY, 70% OF AMERICANS BELIEVE
4
Page 4 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
AMERICA IS MOVING IN THE WRONG
DIRECTION.
AND NO DOUBT ABOUT IT, UNDER
THE CLINTON ADMINISTRATION AND THE
LIBERAL DEMOCRAT CONGRESS, AMERICA
IS MOVING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION IN
JUST ABOUT EVERY AREA YOU CAN
NAME.
TAXES? PRESIDENT CLINTON'S
DIRECTION IS ONE THAT INVOLVED THE
5
Page 5 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
BIGGEST TAX INCREASE IN AMERICAN
HISTORY.
GOVERNMENT? DESPITE THE TALK
OF REINVENTING GOVERNMENT,
PRESIDENT CLINTON IS MOVING IN THE
DIRECTION OF UNRELENTING
GOVERNMENT. MORE BUREAUCRATS.
MORE MANDATES. MORE REGULATION.
MORE CONTROL FOR THOSE WHO WORK
IN WASHINGTON, D.C., AND LESS
6
Page 6 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
CONTROL FOR THOSE WHO LIVE AND
WORK IN NEW HAMPSHIRE.
HEAL TH CARE? YOU KNOW THE
DIRECTION THE PRESIDENT WAS
RECOMMENDING. A DIRECTION WHERE
THE BEST HEAL TH CARE SYSTEM IN THE
WORLD WOULD BE TORN APART AND
TURNED OVER TO THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT.
ON MONDAY, SENATOR MITCHELL
7
Page 7 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
OFFICIALLY PULLED THE PLUG ON
HEAL TH CARE REFORM. AND THE
DEMOCRATS AND SOME IN THE MEDIA
ARE BLAMING REPUBLICANS. THEY'RE
BLAMING THE SO CALLED SPECIAL
INTERESTS. THEY'RE BLAMING THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE.
THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THAT
IF THE HEALTH CARE DEBATE PROVED
ONE THING, IT
8
Page 8 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
PROVED THAT DEMOCRACY WORKS. AN
IDEA WAS PUT FORWARD. IT WAS
DEBATED, DISCUSSED, AND DISSECTED
AT KITCHEN TABLES AND COFFEE SHOPS
AND TOWN HALLS ACROSS THE
COUNTRY. AND THEN THE PEOPLE CAME
TO AN OVERWHELMING CONCLUSION.
THEIR CONCLUSION WAS THE
CLINTON PLAN, AND THE MITCHELL
PLAN, AND THE GEPHARDT PLAN
9
Page 9 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
CONTAINED TOO MUCH OF A LOT OF
THINGS. TOO MUCH CONFUSION. TOO
MUCH BUREAUCRACY. TOO MANY
REGULATIONS. TOO MANY LOST JOBS.
TOO MUCH COST.
AND IN RECORD NUMBERS OF
CALLS AND LETTERS, THEY LET THEIR
REPRESENTATIVES KNOW HOW THEY
FELT. AND CONGRESS RESPONDED. IT
SEEMS TO ME THAT'S JUST HOW
10
Page 10 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
DEMOCRACY SHOULD WORK.
CONGRESS WILL BE BACK NEXT
YEAR, AND HEAL TH CARE WILL BE ON
TOP OF THE AGENDA. I SAID THE OTHER
DAY THAT WE SHOULD BE "WHACKED" IF
WE DONT' HELP THE PEOPLE WHO NEED
HELP. AND THAT'S WHAT REPUBLICANS
WANT TO DO. THAT'S WHAT BOB DOLE
WANTS TO DO. AND THAT'S WHAT
RENEE DAVISON WANTS TO DO.
11
Page 11 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
WHAT WE DON'T WANT, HOWEVER,
IS A PLAN THAT WILL DESTROY THE
QUALITY, CHOICE, AND FREEDOM, THAT
AMERICAN HAVE COME TO EXPECT.
CRIME IS ANOTHER AREA WHERE
PRESIDENT CLINTON AND THE
DEMOCRAT CONGRESS MOVED IN THE
WRONG DIRECTION. THEIR PLAN WAS TO
THROW BILLIONS AND BILLIONS OF
DOLLARS AT SOCIAL PROGRAMS, AND TO
12
Page 12 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
STRIP THE BILL OF MANY OF ITS
TOUGHEST PROVISIONS.
AND CAN ANYONE HERE LOOK AT
THE FOREIGN POLICY OF THE CLINTON
ADMINISTRATION AND SAY WE'RE
HEADED IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION?
TO PARAPHRASE FORREST GUMP,
THE "CLINTON HEAL TH CARE PLAN IS
LIKE A BOX OF CHOCOLATES--YOU NEVER
13
Page 13 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO GET
NEXT."
ONE DAY, THOSE IN CHARGE IN
HAITI ARE BLOODTHIRSTY, MURDERING,
TYRANTS. THE NEXT DAY, THEY'RE JUST
HONEST PUBLIC SERVANTS WHO CARE
ABOUT THEIR COUNTRY.
ONE DAY, WE TALK TOUGH ON
BOSNIA. THE NEXT DAY WE SIT IDLY BY
AS THE SLAUGHTER CONTINUES.
14
Page 14 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
ONE DAY, OUR MISSION IN
SOMALIA IS PREVENTING STARVATION.
THE NEXT DAY IT'S NATION BUILDING,
AND AMERICAN SOLDIERS ARE BEING
SHOT.
ONE DAY, PRESIDENT CLINTON IS
IN CHARGE OF OUR FOREIGN POLICY, THE
NEXT DAY IT'S BOUTROS BOUTROS
GHALI, AND THE NEXT DAY, IT'S JIMMY
CARTER.
15
Page 15 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
SO, YES, REPUBLICANS ARE BEING
HELPED BY THE CLINTON
ADMINISTRATION.
AND THERE ARE SOME WHO HAVE
SUGGESTED THAT ALL REPUBLICANS
NEED TO DO IN THE NEXT 44 DAYS IS
NOTHING. DO NOTHING. SIT STILL, AND
LET PRESIDENT CLINTON SEND VOTERS
OUR WAY.
16
Page 16 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
I DISAGREE. I THINK REPUBLICANS
HAVE TO DO MORE. IT'S NOT GOOD
ENOUGH JUST TO SAY PRESIDENT
CLINTON AND THE DEMOCRATS ARE
TAKING US IN THE WRONG DIRECTION.
WE ALSO HAVE TO LAY OUT WHAT THE
RIGHT DIRECTION IS, AND HOW
REPUBLICANS WILL GET US THERE.
AND THAT'S JUST WHAT THE
17
Page 17 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
SENATE AND HOUSE REPUBLICANS DID
THESE PAST TWO WEEKS~
WE MADE A LITTLE COMPACT WITH
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. WE SAID IF YOU
GIVE US SEVEN MORE REPUBLICANS IN
THE SENATE, IF YOU GIVE US 40 MORE
REPUBLICANS IN THE HOUSE, THEN HERE
ARE SOME IDEAS WE'LL BRING TO THE
FLOOR.
IDEAS LIKE:
18
Page 18 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
*A BALANCED BUDGET
AMENDMENT
*DOUBLING THE INCOME TAX
EXEMPTION FOR CHILDREN, THEREBY
PUTTING MORE MONEY IN THE POCKETS
OF AMERICA'S FAMILIES.
*REPEALING THE CLINTON TAX
INCREASE ON SOCIAL SECURITY
BENEFITS.
*TRUE ANTI-CRIME LEGISLATION
19
Page 19 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
THAT IS BASED ON PRISONS AND
PUNISHMENT,
RATHER THAN THE PORK BARREL.
*WELFARE REFORM BASED ON
WORK, MORE INDIVIDUAL
RESPONSIBILITY, AND LESS FEDERAL
SPENDING.
*AND WE'LL STOP THE GUTTING OF
OUR NATIONAL DEFENSE.
20
Page 20 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
THOSE ARE JUST A FEW IDEAS
THAT WILL PUT AMERICA ON THE RIGHT
TRACK. AND I CAN THINK OF SOME
MORE, LIKE A LINE ITEM VETO, AND LIKE
A REDUCTION IN THE CAPITAL GAINS
TAX RATE.
LET ME TELL YOU ANOTHER
REASON WHY REPUBLICANS CAN'T JUST
SIT ON THE SIDELINES. WHY WE HAVE
TO GET OUT AND LET AMERICANS KNOW
21
Page 21 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
WHAT WE'D DO IF WE HAD A MAJORITY
IN CONGRESS.
AND THAT'S THE FACT THAT MANY
AMERICANS DON'T KNOW THAT
CONGRESS IS CONTROLLED BY THE
DEMOCRATS. IN FACT, A RECENT
SURVEY ASKED AMERICANS TO NAME
THE PARTY IN CONTROL OF CONGRESS.
AND ONLY 60% SAID THE DEMOCRATS.
40% SAID THE REPUBLICANS, OR SAID
22
Page 22 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
THEY DIDN'T KNOW.
NOW, I KNOW 100% OF THIS
AUDIENCE KNOWS THE DEMOCRATS ARE
IN CONTROL .... so THERE ARE AN AWFUL
LOT OF YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS
WHO ARE CONFUSED ... AND WHO NEED TO
KNOW THAT THE DEMOCRATS HAVE
CONTROLLED THE HOUSE FOR THE LAST
40 YEARS, AND THE SENATE FOR 34 OF
THE LAST 40 YEARS.
23
Page 23 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
AND THE MESSAGE I'll BE TAKING
FROM END OF THE COUNTRY TO THE
OTHER OVER THE NEXT 44 DAYS, IS
THAT THE BEST WAY TO GET AMERICA
TO CHANGE DIRECTION, IS TO CHANGE
THE PARTY THAT CONTROLS CONGRESS.
LET ME END THIS AFTERNOON BY
GIVING YOU A LITTLE "INSIDER'S
BRIEFING"
24
Page 24 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
ABOUT THE GAINS WE HOPE TO MAKE IN
THE SENATE.
I HAVE PUT FOUR REPUBLICAN
GAINS IN THE BANK. OLYMPIA SNOWE
IN MAINE. JOHN KYL IN ARIZONA. AND
MIKE DEWINE IN OHIO, AND l'VE JUST
ADDED OLLIE NORTH IN VIRGINIA.
AFTER THAT, WE ARE LOOKING TO
CALIFORNIA WHERE OUR CANDIDATE HAS
25
Page 25 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
COME FROM NOWHERE TO NECK AND
NECK. AND THERE'S MASSACHUSETTS,
WHERE MITT ROMNEY IS GIVING TED
KENNEDY THE RACE OF HIS CAREER.
AND THERE'S TWO RACES IN TENNESSEE.
JIM SASSER, ONE OF THE MOST LIBERAL
DEMOCRATS IN THE SENATE, IS SO
SCARED, HE'S RUNNING ADS THAT MAKE
YOU THINK HE VOTES JUST LIKE JESSE
HELMS. AND THERE'S PENNSYLVANIA,
26
Page 26 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
WHERE DEMOCRAT HARRIS WOFFORD IS
TRYING TO MAKE VOTERS FORGET HE
WAS THE STRONGEST SUPPORTER OF
THE CLINTON HEAL TH PLAN. AND
THERE'S MICHIGAN WHERE SPENCE
ABRAHAM IS MOVING AHEAD OF A VERY
LIBERAL DEMOCRAT CONGRESSMAN.
WE'RE ALSO OPTIMISTIC ABOUT
OUR CHANCES IN GOVERNOR'S
RACES ... AND WHAT A VICTORY IT WOULD
27
Page 27 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
BE IF GEORGE PATAKI WERE TO WIN
HERE IN NEW YORI. WE'RE ALSO
LOOKING AT GAINS IN FLORIDA,
PENNSYLVANIA, AND MAYBE EVEN
TEXAS AND GEORGIA. IN FACT, AFTER
NOVEMBER, THERE IS A CHANCE THAT 11
OF OUR 12 LARGEST STATES WILL HAVE
REPUBLICAN GOVERNORS.
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU ARE
DOING FOR REPUBLICANS HERE IN
28
Page 28 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
ROCHESTER, AND THANK YOU FOR ALL
YOU WILL DO IN THE NEXT 44 DAYS.
WORKING TOGETHER, WE CAN CHANGE
DIRECTIONS, AND PUT AMERICA BACK
ON TRACK.

NEWS U.S. SENATOR FOR KANSAS
FROM: SENATE REPUBLICAN LEADER
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Clarkson Hine Saturday, October 1, 1994 (202) 224-5358 HAITI OCCUPA·1·10N MISSION LEAP, NOT MISSION CREEP, PLJ!,GUES U.S. POLICY
ROCHESTER, NY -- Senate Republican Leader JBob Dole today issued the following statement:
"Televised images of bloody Haitian-on-Haitian violence reinforce questions the American people have about the U.S. military occupation of Haiti. The Administration told Congress on Monday that 15,000 troops would be the upper limit of our deployment. By week's end, some 20,000 Arni~rican soldiers were deployed in Haiti. After the President and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said U.S. troops would not become Haiti's police force, American troops are televised arresting Haitians, patrolling streets, and halting looters. That sounds like police work to me. The size, mission and rules o:E engagement for American forces change constantly. This i:5 not just 'mission creep' it's mission leap.
"America has no interests at stake which justify the occupation of Haiti. American policy is moving in the wrong direction -- more troops, more missions, and more responsibility for governing Haiti. Now is the time to move in the direction of withdrawal not expansion."

' I TALKING POINTS , I Senator Dole Castro for Senate Fundraiser I • You may remember Bernadette Castro.ls the little girl in the television commercials who used to put New York to sleep. Wel1, 1that was then and this is now, and Bernadette Castro is going to wake New York up! ~ • Some people say she's running against one of the legends of American politics. She's not running against a legend·- she's runnina ~nst the Moynihan Myth. And when New Yorkers learn not what Moynihan says he'lf do, but how he's voted in the Senate, she's going to pierce that myth. ! • On Evans and Novak last week Moyniltilh said maybe the time has come for a middle class tax cut, and he suggested it could be d,one through increasing the dependent exemption, What he didn't tell you was thij hie and his fellow Democrats had a chance to increase the dependent exemption to providb tax fairness to middle income fami1ies earlier this year - and he voted against it! . i : I • Senator Moynihan was one of the architects of Bill Clinton's 1993 tax increase-· the largest tax increase in our history. That ta* !increase included making Social Security benefits subject to income taxes ·-not for r~red millionaires, but for retired working people, couples earning $32,000 a year and retired single people making only $25,000 a year. ; I •I've been told that his television ads here'.i,i New York brag about how he protects Social Security. I'm sure that rings true to the millions of retirees here in New York whose income taxes have gone up because '. ~fMoynihan's Social Security tax increases. i • In fact, Senator Moynihan has voted for tlie five largest tax increases in history. So who better for the Democrats to make Chal~an of the Senate Finance Committee. The Senate Finance Committee, in reality, is the $enate's tax-writing committee. And Moynihan has given us a glimpse of what hf!I:would do when it comes to new taxes. • He told the Los Angeles Times in an inteeyiew that even if the federal budget had a ---- surplus, gasoline taxes should be raised thirtf t~ fifty cents a gallon. • He says that all Social Security income sh(>uld be taxed just like any other pension income. I • And he favors a BTU tax that includes ho~e heating oil, even if it means hardship for the people in Buffalo and Rochester, where the winters Set a little cold. Page 50 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu Page two I • Moynihan doesn't just like raising taxes.\ He also likes spending them. • Let me tell you about a new federal buil4ing that's under construction in It's Washington. the largest government building put up 1since the Pentagon was built. It started the during Reagan Administration as a $3 50 millio~ ~uilding that was going to combine government and commercial use. Well, it · ~ problems with the foundation - water seepage. Washington is built on drained sw.irtpland, you know •• and by the time Bush of the Administration the construction was, l>elilnd schedule, the price wu rising, commercial clients were pulling out, and t~ Bush Administration decided to kill it. • Guess I who saved it? Senator Moynihan. IAt a cost of $600 million. With finance charges, that building will ultimately cost the taxpayers u much as $1.2 billion bureaucrats. to house The Moynihan Building -- that's!what they wanted to name it, and that's how he thinks the taxpayers money should 'e spent I during a recession. I • Now we can't afford ... New York can't kftbrd and America can't afford·· six more years with Senator Moynihan as Chairman qfihe Senate tax-writing committee. I . • And I have news for you -- the Republia~ Party is going to pick up seven new senators in 1994, and when we take control of the Se~te in 1995 Moynihan won't be the Chairman of the tax-writing committee anymore. Wb~n the GOP takes over, it will become the tax- cutting committee! . i • And Bernadette Castro is going to be ori~ of our new senators. I • She's for a balanced budget amendment,. he ~sn 't. i . f • She's for the line-item veto, he isn't. •She's for the repeal of income taxes on S°fi~ Security, he isn't. i • •She will vote for tax relief for middle class:families -- he'll philosophize about I ' it. ' • She has 16 years experience in the retail fi!.miture business. She knows what it meet a is to payroll, she understands the bottom 1lne, she knows what government regulation means to business. He has 17 years cxperierice ~ in the I ! Senate, and we know what's happened to the bottom line, our payroll ch,~, and overregulation. • Bernadette's been on the other side ofM'.oYnlhan's tax barrage, and she's decided enough is enough. !

She never caught up to him in the ~ll-~ she was badly outspent, and when the election was over it wu 48% for Whitman ,and S2% for Bradley. Everyone gave up on her, and that defeatism became a self-fulfillir;prophesy. •Let's not make New Jersefs mistake her~ irt New York. Let's make this one end up 52% for Castro, and 48% for Moynihan. ~ 1 ! • She has an uphill race. And if you read Je ~olls today, you'd say she can't pull it off. You're wrong ..

Dusty was helpful to me during my campaign for Congress in 1992. As you know, Dusty is currently the President of National Review. In his former life, he was a partner at Goldman, Sachs. Along with Dick Gilder, Dusty was instrumental in founding the Club for Political Growth, a group of supply-siders who meet periodically in New York for the purposes of listening to federal and state candidates. After grilling the candidates with questions, they then write checks (if they like what they hear). Other members of the Club for Political Growth include Lew Lehrman, Larry Kudlow, Herb London, and Ron Lauder. During the 1992 campaign, Bill Clinton came to Dick Gilder's New York office to make his pitch. Clinton was not well- received. Along with Dick and Virginia Gilder, Dusty is also a member of the Board of Directors of the Project for a Republican Future, Bill Kristal's operation. Dusty occasionally calls the office to offer advice. Earlier this year, he encouraged you to jump on the unfunded mandates issue. I told him about your strong support for the Kempthorne bill. More recently, he called to congratulate you for fighting the crime bill. Although I don't think capping leaal immigration is a big issue for Dusty, it is a big one for John O'Sullivan, National Review's Publisher.

The purpose is to prevent multiple enrollments in the Home Relief Program. * NY State Senator Joe Holland, Chairman of the State Senate's Social Services Committee, has been a strong supporter of fingerprinting Home Relief recipients to reduce fraud. * The Rockland and Onondaga programs have proven to be cost efficient according to a January 1994 report by the NYS Dept. of Social Services. The report stated that, "As of September 1993, we estimated a cost avoidance of $678,960 ... as compared to project expenditures of $160,000." * Governor Cuomo has called for the expansion of the Rockland and Onondaga programs to any New York county that wants the program. However, Rep. Lazio's office reports that Cuomo has not guaranteed any State funding. * Mayor Guiliani supports this fingerimaging idea for NYC. However, no action seems to have been taken. * Rep. Lazio has stated, " ... New York could save $46 million a year by adopting a finger-imaging program .... " In addition, Rep. Lazio stated, " ... a survey of participants in the New York program found that 93% of the recipients responded that the finger-imaging process was not an inconvenience." US Senate: Senator Hutchinson introduced on May 6, 1994 the only Senate bill on fingerprinting AFDC welfare recipients to prevent fraud -- entitled the Welfare Anti-Fraud Act of 1994. The bill amends title IV of the Social Security Act to require States to use a 2-digit fingerprint matching identification system in order to prevent multiple benefit enrollments by individuals. The bill currently has three co-sponsors: Brown, D'Amato and Craig. Senator Hutchinson's office reports that CBO has still not responded to their request for cost estimates and that U.S. Representatives Lazio, Pambo, Doolitle and Levy have expressed interest in offering similar legislation on the House floor. Page 86 of 95 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu US House: Representative Rick Lazio describes the bill he introduced on January 25, 1994 as follows, the bill calls "upon the Secretary of Health and Human Services to conduct a feasibility study on the use of finger-imaging (or other biometric technology such as retina scans) to verify identities of welfare applicants and recipients to help reduce fraud in the Aid to Families With Dependent Children program." This bill has not been acted upon and remains in Ways and Means sub-committee. No other bills have been introduced in the House that involve fingerprinting welfare recipients. cc.

If the Clinton Plo.n is harmful enou~h to neod a waiver, why would our Coniiresswoman ni.andatc participation in it for tho rest of the country? As a community we have too much to lose by sitting out the debate on health care.

This would occur in an indwitry that has rllrtad)l laid-off 30,000 people in the put year lUld a half. The Clinton plan would also have an effect on our area hospitals, and the people who earn tnelr llvlng working in them. When iL comes to hePlth eare lhrce issues have en~eriicd as the major cc.ln~1;1rns of people in Rochester and across the country: 1)Bxp~mliug access to insura.ncc coverage to the 3 7 million Am.orlc.&tnai m1rrent.ly not covered, 2)Fear of losing insurance upon changing jobs, and 3)Rising health care costs mo.y make health care 1 out of roach or wipe ouL u fam ily H savings -- especially when foced with a catnstrophi¢ itlncsR.
