THUMB'' EVENT BRIEF the AREA: Almost Entirely Agricultural. The
This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu MICHIGAN "THUMB'' EVENT BRIEF THE AREA: Almost entirely agricultural. The chief products in the area are navy beans (USED IN SENATE BEAN SOUP) sugar beets and corn. Sanilac County has a higher degree of dairy farming than Tuscola or Huron. THE ISSUES: The chief issue in the "thumb" is the farm crisis. The price of land is down. Farmers are receiving low prices for farm products. Production costs are high. Farm implement dealers are also in an economic crisis. A recent survey of agricultural bankers showed that the dollar values of ''good" farmland in Michigan's Lower Peninsula, which includes the Thumb, showed a 3 percent drop in the first quarter of 1986. The survey also indicated that the 3 percent decline in the first quarter compares to a 10 percent decline for the past year from April '85 to April '86. The survey confirms that the rate of decline in farmland values has slowed. The survey of 500 agricultural bankers was conducted by the Federal Reserve Bank's Chicago-based Seventh district. The district includes Michigan, Indiana, Iowa, Wisconsin, and Illinois. THE POLITICS: About 500 precinct delegate candidates from Huron, Tuscola, and Sanilac counties will attend tonight's fundraiser. About 350 precinct delegates will be elected from the Thumb area. Many delegate candidates have not made up their minds as to which presidential candidate they prefer. Many, since this is a heavy agricultural area, are waiting to hear you before they make a decision. -

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. -
Redrawing Michigan's Congressional Districts
Redrawing Michigan's Congressional Districts by Craig Ruff, President Losing two of eighteen congressional seats, Michigan clearly will lose clout in Washington,D.C. Not yet clear are how sixteen districts will be carved.from the current eighteen, who among our members of Congress will be most threutened, and how the 11-7 Democratic edge may change. This Public Pol icy Advisor ciiscurses district by district the range of options and relative threats to sitting members. For maps of Michigan's congressional districts refer topage 16. Seniority counts on Capitol Hill. Long service delivers prime committee assignments, committee and subcommitlee chairships, budget negotiating chits, and policy and party caucus leadcrship. As late as the early 1960s, southern Democrats armed with decades of seniority chaired nearly all the key committees of the U.S. House. Age, growing Republican competitiveness in the South, increased registration and voting by more liberal African-Americans in southern Democratic primaries, and incumbent entxenchmcn: in the L North and Midwcst largely have reversed geographical clout in the U.S. House. Michigan, not South Carolina nor Mississippi, now lays claim to a powerhouse delegation. Collectively, Lhc eighteen members of the U.S. Housc of Representatives from Michigan havc 286 years of service in Washington, D.C. Excluding Barbara-Rose Collins ;md David Camp, who wcrc elected in 1990, the remaining sixteen members average nearly 18 years each in the U.S. Congress. Those long tenures translate into key committee positions, pork barrel, and clout, particularly among majority Democrats. MICHIGAN'S MOST INFLUENTIAL MEMBERS OF THE U.S. HOUSE Not to downplay the constituent work, personal and political influence, and respect enjoyed by other Michigan congresspersons, cight Democrats and three Republicans are certainly movers and shakers in Washington, D.C. -
