MANGUS STATEHOUSE REPORT Our prayers have been answered. The war in the Gulf is over, and the Allies are victorious. Speaking for the rest of the General Assembly, we are extremely grateful to our men and women who served this great nation during the war, and we eagerly await their return. The day after President Bush declared a cease-fire, the members of the House joined together to sing “God Bless America.” Business continued as usual in the Indiana Statehouse last week. Three important issues which came up during the week were ISTEP testing, prison bonding and the boat excise tax. A bill passed the House Tuesday that would eliminate ISTEP testing for both first and 11th graders. While I agree that the test is not practical for first graders, 1 oppose doing away with 11th grade ISTEP. The test is the only way we have to gauge the progress of high school juniors and identify their deficiencies before they graduate. Hoosiers spend millions of tax dollars every year to fund educa-

tion, and they deserve to know whether or not they are getting their money’s worth. Admittedly, the ISTEP test is not perfect. However, instead of tak ing the easy way out, 1 believe we should revise and improve this relatively new testing system. Our children would be the better for it Respresentative Phil Warner of Goshen proposed an amendment to the bill which would have delayed elimination of the test until the Department of Education has time to come up with another test Unfortunately, his motion was de seated. Prison bonding also came to the forefront last week. The majority party wants to borrow roughly S2O million to build new prisons. I agree that we must address the problem of prison overcrowding but in terms of priorities, I'd rather spend our money on education Let’s work on getting our kids off to a good start in school in order to reduce the chances of them wind ing up in jail down the road. Traditionally, prisons have been paid for as they are built, without putting the state into debt. How ever, the prison bonding bill would ultimately cost an additional S2OO million dollars in interest and finance charges. That's bad news for the fiscal future of Indiana. Finally, some more good news Both the House and the Senate are busy working on ways to provide excise tax relief for small boat owners. Representative Dean Mock of Elkhart added an amend ment to a bill on Friday that will exempt boat owners from register ing, licensing and paying the excise tax on their boat if they use an engine with 7.5 horsepower or less The revised bill will make it much easier and less expensive for you to put your boat on the water. Once again, I’d like to thank the troops in the Persian Gulf. Thes did a terrific job. 1 know I speak for the people of my district when I say we are all very proud of what they did for this country. If you have any questions con ceming state matters, please feel free to contact me at The State house. Room 336, Indianapolis.
