WASHINGTON REPORT
Congressman Edwin D. Eshleman MKI
16th Dislrict-Pennsylvania
The penod when an old year
is ending and a new year begin
ning is a time for review of the
past and planning foi the future
Our resolutions ai e carefully set
down, often reflecting our analy
sis of what we did light or
wrong in days just past and
what we hope to do as well or
better in the days ahead A leg
islator makes his personal les
olutions, but, in addition, he
thinks some about resolutions
of an official nature that is,
the legislative bills he has spon
sored previously and the ones
he plans to introduce dunng the
coming session of Congiess
Duung the 90th Congiess I
sponsored or co sponsored forty
seven bills dealing with a van
ety of subjects I was foitunate
enough to see a numbei of those
pieces of legislation, or similai
bills, become law For example,
the wire tapping proposal I sug
gested was included basically
unchanged in the Cnme Contiol
Act eventually passed by the
Congress. Other bills promoting
pievention of juvenile delinqu
ency, student loans for higher
education and vocational educa
tion also won Congressional ap
pioval It is those legislative of
fenngs I can look back on with
some pride in my review of the
past year, but an evaluation of
the proposals that failed to gam
final action is moie important
in planning a legislative pro
giam for the 91st Congress
Of course, no Congressman
bats one-Lundred percent in get
ting favorable consideration on
the bills he sponsois But, per
sistence is often an asset when
the content of a proposal seems
to have particular ment In oth-

er words, if a piece of legisla
tion is not passed during one
teim of Congress, it should be
re-introduced with a hope that
a new session may hold a bright
er piospect There are some of
my “failures” that will be tried
again, for they seemed to spark
some interest in the 16th Dis
tant when they were original
ly drafted.
Between Januaiy and March,
I plan to re-introduce several
bills. The content of some of
these proposals will include
(1) Allowing tax credits for
higher education costs, (2) Tax
sharing by the Federal govern
ment with the States, (3) Great
er protection of domestic cigar
tobacco puces from unfau for
eign product competition, (4)
Establishment of a Commission
foi the Impiovement of Govern
ment Management and Organi
zation, (5) Providing mandatory
penalties for using a fhearm in
commission of a crime, and (6)
Limiting the term of Supreme
Court Justices to ten years
The six legislative ideas listed
above will naturally be coupled
to a number of completely new
suggestions on my part While
some of the new bills are al
ready in the works, I shall leave
their content to detailed column
discussion later on in 1969
Peihaps a portion of these
proposed bills will be as success
ful in the 91st Congress as the
peisonal resolutions to which
you are fully committing your
self at this time In any case,
you have my guarantee of a leg
islative commitment to each bill
that carnes my name in the Con
gressional session ahead
Happy New Year to each of
you'
