| Congressman 1 Wd JL t Fithian 1 I Reports eshhmshsx!

W’hen the 94th congress began some 20 months ago, a number of us had some high hopes for what we might accomplish for the American people. We needed to change unfair tax laws, which allow Texaco and Exxon to get by paying tax rates far lower than the average American family. A few of us realized that too many family farms and family-owned businesses were facing extinction due to high estate tax rates, and that the exemption level needed to be raised immediately. Bureaucratic over-reach by federal agencies, we noted, has been choking competition in business and industry and interfering with the individual rights of every American. Wasteful government spending has gone unchecked for too long, without enough people in congress tough enough to stand up to the bureaucrats and insist that they trim their budgets. Older Americans have become a neglected group and the eight million unemployed workers in our towns and cities needed jobs. All that, and more, faced us in January of 1975. In some areas, we reached success. We suffered failure in others. And although a lot of work remains to be done, we have made some progress. We passed the tax reform act of 1976, including the critical section raising the estate tax exemption level to $175,000. We cracked down on Big Oil’s biggest tax loophole, the oil depletion allowance, and we managed to stave off a highpowered lobbying effort to allow oil and natural gas prices to rise unchecked. We extended individual income tax cuts and began the long-awaited tax simplification process We had some limited success in the fight to curb the bloated bureaucracy in Washington. With passage of the Fithian amendment, we managed to put a termination date on the life of one needless bureaucracy, the federal energy administration. Some of us stood up to the link between big government and big business and began the fight against the revolving door arrangement that allows special favors to be meted out to Lockheed and Gulf Oil. When grain embargoes interrupted the free flow of American agricultural products overseas, some of us insisted that this sort of interference with farm markets must not be permitted in the future, and we backed that up with action. We passed legislation to clean up the scandal-torn grain inspection system, which has been robbing farmers of their hard-earned

profits. We looked at the disgraceful record of some individuals in government —a minority of public officials, to be sure, but the cause of a loss of citizen confidence of those in public life so that efforts to clean up Washington were begun. As a result, a few of us in the reform movement in congress began an overhaul of procedures in the capitol, and we pushed through legislation such as the lobbying disclosure bill and the government in the Sunshine act. We put more Americans back to work, drawing paychecks instead of unemployment checks. By keeping energy prices in line, we made some progress in reducing high prices. We began the effort to return more federal dollars to the small communities and rural areas of America, instead of allowing the dollar drain into our big cities to go unchecked. And at' every step along the way, we tried to involve citizens more in their own government — so that this involvement of Americans in shaping the future of their country would bring a government more responsive to the needs of average families instead of a government that listens only to the special interests and the powerful. In all, we have made some progress in our fight to return the American government to the American people. But much more remains to be done. It is my hope that the people of Indiana will continue their fights to shape a more responsive, more just and more fair government for us all.
