THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON RECOMMENDED TELEPHONE CALLS TO · Congressman Albert Gore, .Jr. (Tenn.), and Congressman Tim Lee Carter (Ky.} DATE Juae 8, 1978 RECOMMENDED BY: Frank Moore Jll/. BACKGROUND The key vote will oc.cur today on the Santini amendment which would gut the Hospital Cost Containment bill by substituting a voluntary prog.ram to be monitored by a commission which would make recommendations if the hospital industry failed to meet the voluntary goals in ·cost reductions. The headcount in Commerce on final passage is still very close. In as much as we and the labor movement ar.e opposed to the S'antini substitute, we should be able to defeat it. On the motioa to recommit yesterday morning,, we were opposed by the AHA, the FAR, the ~., and labor. The recommittal vote was 24-16. Congressman Gore is still undec.ided but he's L -f l1sten1ng and 1t may be possible to get him. He voted with us on the recommit. , Congressman Carter is stil.l with us, but J _ 0 we can be sure he is getting extraordinary MJl'( press·ure fr:-.om ·his GOP colleagues. He is ~ very important to us -- well worth a call. 0 . I \ - ~ 7/f'.,f,vks Fo-,. ,i o.,. 1/o r-4'/ r'f'l,_"l ....... tllllll·tiUir... <:'if . 'PI! sktlli .,.,·;r·'•·, ' ' Page,2 TALKING POINTS FOR CONGRESSMAN GORE: Hal.e Champion met with Gore yesterday morning; Gore listened well, but the result was inconclusive and Gore remains undecided about his positi.on. However, G.o;re v.oted with us on the m.otion to recommit the bill to Subcommi t.tee, and he should be thanked for that vote. Certain .of Gore's comments t.o the Under Secretary regarding, rural hospitals indicate that he still does n.ot fully understand the bill and that he c.onfuses it with health planning. (On health planning, by the way, strong protections have already been adopted--bo.th in the draft legislat1.on reported by the House. Commerce Committee and by HEW in regulations--to guard ag:ainst disruptions in rural hospitals.) Go\r'e should be a:ssured that we agree with him about the Becessity to protect rural hospitals, especially in und7r­ served areas, and that We bel1.eve--and other rural Comm1.ttee members agree--the current draft bill does as well in that regard as is pos:sible, without. underC\!ltting: the esseBtial purpose o.f the legis]a,tion. ;zr,~,, ~A~•., fPw/IJ' IN 1/1~ ,,,·lflt·rr it TALKING POINTS FOR CONGRESSMAN CARTER: Congres·sman Carter should be called and thanked for his strong support and leadership on this bill, in the face of constant and heavy lobby1.ng from opponents and great pressure from his Republican colleagues. He should be praised and thanked for his eloquent statement this morning in oppos.i tion to the motion to recommit, and urged to continue to avoid eroding amendm7n to the "Rogers/Carter" compromise.

  • Mclemore Preliminary Pages DISSERTATION NOVEMBER 2012
    The Second Reconstruction in Local Politics: Alabama Grassroots Activists Fulfilling the Promise of the Voting Rights Act, 1960-1990 by Lawrence Underwood McLemore A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama December 8, 2012 Keywords: Voting Rights Act, political activists, black suffrage, Alabama, Alabama Democratic Conference Copyright 2012 by Lawrence Underwood McLemore Approved by David C. Carter, Chair, Associate Professor of History Charles A. Israel, Associate Professor of History Kelly Kennington, Assistant Professor of History Abstract In arguing that historians expand the timeline for what is considered the modern civil rights movement, this dissertation examines how grassroots Alabama activists affiliated with the Alabama Democratic Conference carried the struggle for political equality forward on the local level after the enactment of the Voting Rights Act in 1965. This dissertation also argues that Alabama voting rights activists understood that change begins at the local level, and employed the Voting Rights Act in dismantling a variety of racially discriminatory laws and customs that governed political and electoral practices in their state. Many narratives of civil rights struggles have focused on national figures and institutions, such as Dr. Martin Luther King, President Johnson, the Congress, and the U.S. Supreme Court. This dissertation focuses, instead, on the local citizen-activists in Alabama who won hard-fought victories in voting rights by collaborating and utilizing connections with powerful leaders and institutions.

In the process, these political activists transformed Alabama’s politics and the state electorate.
