M ay lt! , 1 9 7 7 LR ~4q ln terms of allocation of these funds, but if you want to play funny games with employment of peoole and with Job opportunities to say get a prospect ln mv district which goes against the entire grain of the bill, and when you get a veto back on some of those pro,sects in your dlstrlct, don't come running crying to me telling me you need thirty votes. I want that to be understood and I want you to understand perfectlv clea that I knew what was going to happen when this bill came out ln this form. We were going to trv to divide up the pie for pro„'ects ln our districts w'thout anv regard for the full intent of the bill and that ls tc solve some of the unemployment problems and that is p ett y , that ls ridiculous, that is nonsense. I think we ought to tell the Governor that he ought to take full advantage of the state allocat1on under the Public Works Employment Act of 1977 and we ought to let lt go at that. Let him determine lt by criteria, not by :he fact I am going to get a little help at the Gretna .=.tate Park or the Fish Hatchery or Sam Cullan ls going to get lt at Fort Rob and you can tell how the votes are goinp. I . is on that basis. It ls not on employment and vou had better get it back to employment and you had better realize that this ls a serious, serious blow lf adooted to 549, because with that section ln there, and I ar sure the Governor is going to strike lt out, and I hone he does, then he and I will be ln total agreement for once. That will make us both happy. Rut I will not support this bill ln an override with this kind of language in there and I can assure you there is coin~ to be some things cut out of it.
