I88UJl8 S~Ya l:AXES - Prather signed the Americans tor Tax Reform "Taxpayer Protection Pledge," but only after three days of pounding by Lewis. Prather specifically refused to sign an ATR Pledge to oppose any health bill with new taxes, limits choice of Doctors or hospitals, includes rationing or impo&e employer or individual mandates As a State Legislator, Prather voted to raise more than 40 taxes and fees during 1968-1986. TOBACCO/AgRiCULTURE - Clinton "War on Tobacco" is crucial. Lewis came out yesterday with a "S-Point Plan on Agriculture," including: No Increase in cigarette taxes and def eat of the Waxman public smoking ban; Defeat of COSHRA; Risk Assessment and cost-bene!it analysis for new federal requlations; Nichols bill (Fair Compensation for Requlatory Takings); and ending unfunded federal mandates.

DEFINSE - Important here because of Fort Knox, Louisville Naval Ordnance Prather has endorsed "Oon•t-Ask-Don't-Tell" We've hit the Third Wave of base closures with news conferences about Defense Authorization Act now on Houaa Floor; advocated restoration of Clinton Defense cuts and cancellation of 3d wave; also urged passage of Hanson Amendment to defer 3d wave through 1997.

TERM LIMITS -

PRATHER ATTACJ( THEQ

Prather atte~pting offensive in earned and paid media that Lewis is puppet of special interests, national GOP GOP MAILING WHICH DRQPPEP 5/18: Media might !ocus on State GOP mail piece dropped Thursday highlighting Prather corruption themes: In 1983, while Prather was KY state Dem Chair, Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette qave $12,000 to the Party and $13,000 to Collins Inaugural Fund -- the firm qot $540 million in no-bid municipal bond business in exchange In 1992, while Prather was Jones' campaign manager, Lazard Freres & Co. gave $12,000 to Jones campaign -- got $250 million in Kentucky Turnpike Authority bond business in exchange In 1992, as Finance Secretary, Prather renewed the contract naming Farmers Bank of Frankfort the chief depository for State Funds, without bids -- right after Farmers Bank refinanced $5 million in Jones• personal loans. During the oampaiqn, the Farmers Bank loans had become an issue, and Jones had promised competitive bidding on the State depository contract; when Prather renewed the contract, he said he never knew about Jones' promise -- even though he was Jones• campaign manager at the time. PRATHER OYERCQHFIPEHCE Prather told a rally in Springfield, KY, that he'd already gone to Washington to look for a house; we've hit him on it hard.

1) BANDWAGON

"It'• hard to believe that just a week aqo, the political experts had already called this race ae a runaway. Joe Prather had it all won. tte even went up to Washington to find himself a house. "Well, this has turned into a real qood Kentucky Horse-Race, and the lonqshot i• •ovinq up fast in the stretch! 2) PRATHER'S D.C. HOUSING SEARCH

"While Joe Prather .was up in Washinqton cheeking out apartments, Ron Lewis was back here in Kentucky, workinq hard, talkinq to people, building an orqanization. This is still America, and in America, we still hold elections -- we don't hold coronationa.

"As tar as housing in Washington, Joe Prather is always welcome to stay with Liddy and me -- we've got a fold-away couch. Just be sure you don't plan to stay more than a couple ot days! 3) SEND A MESSAGE TO CLINTON

"I can't vote in this election, but I wish I could, and so do millions of Americans from coast to coast. The eyes of the whole country are on Louisville/Bowling Green/OWensboro, because we're all countinq on you to send Bill and Hillary Clinton a message -- our taxes are too high, the government is sticking its nose in our affairs to much, and we don't need you to pick our children's doctors! 4) TOBACCO MESSAGE

"About the only military engagement can handle these days is the war on tobacco here in Kentucky.

"Hiqher ciqarette taxes. No more smoking in public places. Like Ron Lewi• says, the next thinq you know, he 1 11 make it a federal crime not to qet your daily requirement of Vitamin C !! "By the time the Clintons get done with us, everything that isn't specifically prohibited will be absolutely ~andatory!

5) 'l'AX THEME

"Joe Prather finally signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge. He says he's a •recovered' Tax-aholic. Well, Joe, just like an alcoholic has to stay out of bars, tax-a-holies have to stay out of Conqress! 6) RELIGIOUS THEME - IF ASKED

"In America, you can be Mayor, or Congressman, or President, and your religion doesn't matter.

"This race is about taxes, it's about government sticking its nos~ ln our business, and it's about the Clinton agenda. Last time I checked, it wasn't about religion, and it sure wasn't about religious intolerence. Mike Collins NRCC 5/19/94

TO: NINA OVIEDO

FROM: ADO MACHIDA

SUBJECT: $500 TAX CREDIT

You have asked me to look into any Senate bills with a $500 tax credit, as Senator Dole may be asked a question regarding this issue in his upcoming visit to Kentucky.

The only bills I am aware of with any $500 tax credit is: S. 1576 - Sen. Coats - Family, Investment, Retirement, Savings, and Tax Fairness Act of 1993

S. 1576 - Family, Investment, Retirement, Savings, and Tax Fairness Act of 1993 S. 1576, introduced by Sen. Dan Coats (R-IN) on October 21, 1993, would provide a tax credit for families, provide certain tax incentives to encourage investment and increase savings, and place limitations on the growth of spending. First, for calendar year 1993, the bill would provide a credit to taxpayers of $500 multiplied by the number of children under the age of eighteen in the taxpayer's family. After 1993, the amount of the family tax credit would be multiplied by the cost-of-living adjustment [COLA]. The bill would also reduce the tax on the maximum level of capital gains for both individuals and corporations from 28 to 15 percent.

Cosponsors of this bill are 15 Republicans, 0 Democrats: BENNETT (R-UT), BROWN (R-CO), BURNS (R-MT), CRAIG (R-ID), FAIRCLOTH (R-NC), GRAMM (R-TX), HATCH (R-UT), HELMS (R-NC), HUTCHISON (R-TX), KEMPTHORNE (R-ID), LOTT (R-MS), MACK (R-FL), MCCAIN (R-AZ), NICKLES (R-OK), and SMITH (R-NH).

This bill has been referred to the Senate Finance Committee, and no action has been scheduled on this bill.

There are similar or counterpart bills in the House side (H.R.2434 - Putting Jobs and the American Family First Act of 1993, and H.R.3645 - Family Investment, Retirement, Saving, and Tax Fairness Act of 1993, both introduced by Congressman Grams (R-MN)).

This $500 tax credit was part of the Republican Alternative on the Budget Resolution.

TO: PAC DIRECTORS FR: BILL PA.-XON RE: KE1'.1UCKY 2 SPECIAL ELECTION DATE: MAY 10, 1994

There ~ill be a special election on May 24, in Kentucky's 2nd district to fill the vacancy made by the death of Congressman Bill Natcher.

Although this is not uonnally wnsi

I hope you take a moment to look at this election. If you remember, just a couple of weeks ago, there wasn't a pundit in tom1 who thought Frank Lucas would be the next Congressman!

The District

• Although this district has been held by a Dernor.rat. for almost a cenmry, last year's redistricting significantly increased the number of Republican voters in the district making it a viable opportunity for a Republican victory. • The district has voted Republican in every Presidential in the last three decades except in 1976. • In 1988, P1esidem Bush won lhe disLricL with 45% Lo ClinLon's 41%. • Senator Mitch McCom1ell consistently wins this district.

The Republican Candidate

• Ron T.ewis is a small businessman and e

The Democrat Candidate

• Joe Prather is currently a businessman, however he has been a career politician for several decades. • Mr. Prather does not accept PAC money.

HOTLINE 5/19/94 *11 MAY RACES KY 01 (5/24 PRIMARY): Louisville COURIER-JOURNAL profiles the two candidates for the Dem nomination -- frosh Rep. Tom Barlow and state Sen. Henry Lackey. C-J's Brown compares Barlow to the Jimmy Stewart character in "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington": "Barlow radiates sincerity and diligence and by all accounts is excruciatingly honest. Also like ["Jefferson Smith"], Barlow can be awkward, some say humbling, in public. And he has a propensity for spouting high-sounding drivel" (5/18). C-J's Ellers notes Lackey has not gained much "power" in the KY Senate: "Lackey attributes most of this situation to voting the way his constituents want -- and sometimes against the wishes of Democratic leaders .... Others say Lackey, 47, hasn't been so much independent as he has been determined to protect his political prospects" (5/19). KY 02 (5/24 SPECIAL): Louisville COURIER-JOURNAL'S Cross analyzes ex-state Rep. Joe Prather's (D) latest ad. ANNCR: "Why is [GOP nominee] Ron Lewis smearing Joe Prather with vicious falsehoods. The facts: Joe Prather is a conservative .... And like Bill Natcher, he'll never take a dime of out-of-state special interest money. And who owns Ron Lewis? Tens of thousands of dollars from the Washington special interests, paying to smear Joe Prather and buy the election." Cross: "Both candidates are trying persuade voters that the other is beholden to Washington interests, and neither is making a very good case" (5/19). Charles Cook notes the story that Prather "was already shopping around for an apartment in Washington, something that is usually seen as bad luck, not to mention really bad form since the voters haven't officially crowned him Congressman." Cook notes Lewis caught Prather "off guard" by going on TV with NRCC money, while Prather "got cute" by announcing that he would take no PAC money or out-of-state money and no money from party cmtes: "So now we have a very competitive race, ... which should be solidly in the Democratic column -- at least for 1994" (ROLL CALL, 5/19). KY 03 (5/24 PRIMARY): Businessman Charlie Owen (D) has "stepped up the attack on two of his 10 opponents" in the 5/24 primary. KY Women's Political Caucus founder Dolores Delahanty (D) and ex-state Rep. Mike Ward (D) responded to new Owens radio and TV ads claiming the spots "distorted their positions." The two "also criticized Owen for negative campaigning and bemoaned the fact that he may have enough money to hurt them." Ward: "I'm limited in my ability to respond by not being a cable-TV millionaire." Delahanty: "What he couldn't accomplish with money, he's trying to accomplish with mud." Owens "plans to drive the agenda for the rest of the campaign by holding news conferences each day" and running ads that compare him to the two on several issues. As with the crime issue, Owens used health care "to position himself as a conservative next to Delahanty and Ward." His tag line: "I'm a different kind of Democrat." Owens latest ad opens: "Do you want the government to choose your doctor or to decide who deserves medical care? Of course not, but that's what we'll get with Dolores Delahanty or Mike Ward."

Owen claims Ward supports the Clinton plan, which Ward denies. (He says he and Owen "aren't that far apart") Owen also claims Delahanty supports single-payer. Delahanty has said she could support single-payer under certain restrictions (C-J, 5/18). There are seven other Dems running for the seat being vacated by retiring Rep. (D). GOPers: 1 92 nominee Susan Stokes, '90 candidate Tim Hardy and Tommy Klein.

HOTLINE 5/16/94 *15 HOUSE SPECIALS: KY 02: The Louiville COURIER-JOURNAL endorsed ex-state Rep. Joe Prather (D) over GOP nominee Ron Lewis in the 5/24 special election to fill the late Rep. 's (D) seat. (5/15). "Sensing a chance to pick up a district," the nat'l GOP has "jumped" into the race. "With an unknown amount of help," Lewis began a "surprisingly well-financed television campaign likening" Dem nominee Prather to Pres. Clinton. The ads say Prather and Clinton "are professional politicians who have raised taxes and cut state-government deals for their friends." Although the ads were produced by the NRCC, "they say they are being paid for by Lewis' campaign." KY GOP chair Terry Carmack: "The Lewis campaign is going for broke ... to ignite this campaign and make sure voters ... know there is an alternative" (Cross, Louisville COURIER-JOURNAL, 5/15).
