Schneider said Presidential Adviser Ed Meese called the ACLU a "criminal lobby," he added Schneider read a list of pend ing social legislation on Reagan's desk that included greater power to the CIA, a ban on abortions, and the Family Protection Act. which Schneider says contradicts Reagan's promise of getting "government off people's backs " The panel called on citizens to write letters to their legisla tors and become knowledge able on the important issues The forum was sponsored by OSPIRG and the Campus ACLU WIN HER HEART with a full cut DIAMOND SOLITAIRE CHARGE IT!
