    1234 Massachusetts Avenue, NW • Suite 103 • Washington, DC 20005 • 202-347-1234 #100-33 Information Alert: October 11, 1988 Medicaid Reform House Hearing TO: DD Council Executive Directors FROM: Susan Ames-Zierman On September 30, 1988, Congressman Henry Waxroan held a hearing on his bill, H.R.5233, and that of Congressman Florio, H.R. 3454, which is the House companion bill to Senator Chafee's S. 1673, the Medicaid Home and Community Quality Services Act. Mr. Waxman's opening statement is enclosed. Attached is testimony given by Congressman Steve Bartlett of Texas, Senator Chafee, and the Congressional Budget Office. Also enclosed is a side-by-side comparison of the two bills and current Medicaid law developed by the Congressional Research Service of the Library of Congress.. Senator Bentsen has agreed to mark up Senator Chafee's bill early in the 101st Congress. Should Senator Bentsen become the Vice-President, Senator Matsunaga of Hawaii would become Senate Finance Committee Chairman and would, in all likelihood, be agreeable to moving forward. Congressman Waxman, while not going as far as to discuss mark-up on either his or Florio's bill, did agree, in both his opening and closing statements, to work with Congressman Florio on a compromise early in the next Congress. A list of current co-sponsors of the Chafee/Florio bills is attached. We need to keep all those returning Senators and Congressman on-board when this process begins anew in January. For those in your Congressional delegations who are not current co-sponsors, plan some visits to programs while they are home campaigning this fall and over the holidays.

  • Gore Express Gets Illinois Riders ~
    1 Democratic Party of Illinois) MUR# 1 5/a7 COMPLAINT On behalf of the Republican Party of Illinois, I am filing this complaint pursuant to 2 U.S.C. 0 437(g)(a)( 1) against the Democratic Party of Illinois for the acceptance of prohibited contributions from the State of Illinois. Specifically, the State of Illinois is paying the salary of the Executive Director of the Democratic Party of Illinois, Timothy Mapes. Mr. Mapes also happens to be the Chief of Staff of the Speaker of the House, Michael J. Madigan. Thus, the State of Illinois is paying for Mr. Mapes to be the Democratic Party of Illinois Executive Director. This constitutes a violation of the Federal Election Campaign Act. THE FACTS It is commonly known that Timothy Mapes is the Executive Director of the Democratic Party of Illinois. Yet, in reviewing the reports filed by the Democratic Party of Illinois for the past three years there is only one mention of Timothy Mapes having received a payroll check from the Democratic Party of Illinois. That was in October 1998 in the amount of $2,773.36. (& Attachment 1). We can find no other reference to Timothy Mapes in the 1998, 1999, or 2000 reports of the Democratic Party of Illinois.' I The Democratic Party of Illinois has been very active in this same time frame. In 1998, the Democratic Party of lllinois raised.$l,573,283.74 in hard dollars. In 1999, the Why? Because the State af.Illinois is paying Mr. klapes Salary as the Democratic Party's Executive Director with the consent of House Speaker Michael Madigan.
