immigrants are fully integrated into American society.

taxpayers. We must terminate every form of government-

National Endowment for the Arts from funding pornography

welfare and regulatory bureaucracies.

President of the United States 1981-1989.
President Bush's campaign for reelection is about change,
about the simple, powerful idea that government spends too
much and costs too much.
His top priority is jobs. His Economic Growth Package
would stimulate.our economy without raising the deficit or
taxes. It cuts taxes for families by raising the personal
exemption for each child$500, gives first-time homebuyers a
$5,000 tax credit, encourages investment in plants and
equipment,slashes capital gains taxes,and allows penalty-free
withdrawals from IRA's for medical and education expenses.It
will work without the wasteful government spending that's
failed us before.
His"America 2000"Education Reforms will give parents the
right to choose the schools their children attend.It emphasizes
the basics,enhances local control,strengthens discipline,sets
national standards in math, science and history, and
encourages children to study more and learn more.
r
As a conservationist and outdoorsman, he takes seriously
our Nation's commitment to hold the land in trust for future
generations. He pushed through more environmental
legislation than any President in recent history.The Clean Air
Act balances jobs and the environment and uses the free
market in an innovative way to improve air quality.He tripled
the nation's,hazardous waste clean-up effort and put a
moratorium on oil drilling off the Pacific Coast.
For three years,he's fought to get his comprehensive crime
package through Congress. Strong against criminals and
supportive of police,it includes a major,renewed investment
in fighting violent street crime, a meaningful death penalty,
reforms allowing evidence gathered by police in the belief they
are acting lawfully to be used, and an end to unnecessary
repetitive appeals that delay justice.

ARGUMENT IN1 FAVOR
`#k As representatives of the Deschutes County Library
Board,we ask your support for the Deschutes County tax base
measure:The reasons are clear and compelling.;.
We all benefit from our library system:Libraries are an
important part of the'lives of Deschutes County residents,
serving everyone regardless of their ability to pay.Our libraries
in Bend, LaPine, Redmond, and.Sisters provide essential
services to people of all ages,books and programs for the very
young, resources for students' and books and magazines for
adults——from business and technical references to how-to-do-
it guidance to leisure reading.Library staff provides'reference 6
and research assistance, helping people find the information
they need to solve problems and make better-informed
decisions. Outreach programs provide library services for the
elderly, the handicapped, and the-housebound.'All these
services enhance our individual., lives'and enrich our
communities. .
As one of the services Deschutes County provides,
libraries are totally dependent on the county tax base for
operating funds. Should recent cutbacks in operating funds
continue and an adequate tax base not be restored,the County
would be forced to cut vital services even more.,This may mean
cutting off operating funds for the library,''a service which is
certainly mandated in the hearts and minds of people although
V ' not mandated by law.
