Here's the post from the leader of our local support group, Jim Morner, who has been trying to arrange a meeting with our Rep. Boehner. We worked really hard on Boehner last year, to no avail--he's one who uses the "object to earmarking" excuse that others have encountered. We plan to have group members write to him and to Sen. DeWine at our meeting on 4/8. ----------------------------Original message---------------------------- From: [log in to unmask] (MR JAMES L MORNER) Date: Wed, 2 Apr 1997 12:35:38, -0500 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Boehner Camilla, I just got off the phone with Gary Rubman in Boehner's Wash. office. Boehner, who is in China with Newt, will probably not be back in Hamilton much before Congress convenes. I identified the subject we wanted to discuss and was informed that he, Boehner, has not changed his mind about co-sponsoring or voting in favor of the Udall bill. He insists that the propper approach was allocating money to the Nat. Health Boiard( or what ever the proper title is). I tried to make a comparison with other specific allocations that are "ear marked" but he wouldn't conceed any relation. I think that Boehner is a lost cause. I told Gary we would be watching to see how he voted. There is another election next year. I tried but probably to no avail. See you soon. Jim
