Great minds think alike, or is that small minds, confused minds.... Whatever, I have contacted the sponsors for permission to have a 30 second spot aired re supporting the Udsll Bill. Meanwhile, Joan Samuelson has contacted Hatfields office and he has agreed to do the spot. Not only will that have impact but it focuses his attention on the Udall Bill at a time when his suport is urgent. I met with Senator Santorum's staff today to seek their aid and council in getting this Bill moving. They strongly suggested that Santorum will be out front in drumming up support for this bill. Their comment was DC has becomeincreasingly converned about how much things cost. Well hears aan issue that is not only people sensitive but saves huge sums of money once the CURE is found. They suggested that he would go to Kassebaum and appeal to her to get this bill moving for fiscal reasons. Santorum will be a great ally as he is noted as a budget cutter so that when he says this makes sense, others will listen. Once we get this ball rolling, watch out, people will come out of the woodwork saying of course this makes sense. But we got to get it rolling. Write or call Kassebaum today. Or any other on her committee Jeffords Vermont No 202 228 0338 Coats Indiana No 202 228 3924 Gregg New Hampshire No 202 324 4952 DeWine Ohio No 202 224 6519 Ashcroft Missouri _ No 202 224 6770 Abraham Michigan No 202 224 8834 Gorton Washingto No 202 224 9393 Kennedy Massachusetts Yes(?) 202 224 2417 Pell Rhode Island Yes 202 224 4680 Dodd Connecticut Yes 202 224 1083 Simon Illinois Yes 202 224 0868 Harkin lowa No 202 224 9369 Mikulski Maryland Yes 202 224 8858 Wellstone Minnesota Yes 202 224 8438
