The President's Talking Points

Presidential
Talking Points for the 5:30 Meeting on May 1 Energy
Action
1. Rog Morton, I understand that Frank
[Zarb] and others have been working around the clock
with the Congress to reach some compromises on our energy
program. Before discussing the options paper I think
Frank should bring us up to date on these discussions.
2. Would anyone else like to add their
views on the current situation?
3. Frank, why don't you go over the options in the paper
and generally describe the advantages and disadvantages
of each? |
