Common Cause rejects statements

asserted that Common Cause,
for instance, insisted on
lobbyists being registered,
but had not registered itself
as a lobby. The two Com

pointed out that this is sirriply
false. They expressed sur
prise th a t Congressman
Steve Low enstein and
Chuck Habernigg, Co-Chair
men of Oregon Common

cern about statements made
by retiring Congresswoman
Edith Graen and and Con

W yatt was not aware of the
nationally advertised fact
that Common Cause has al
ways been reg istered in
Washington as a citizens'
lobby and has publicly re
vealed all sources of its in
come, all of its goals, and its
activities in pursuit of those
goals.
Furthermore, they
pointed out that Common
Cause is registered as a
lobbyist in the State of Ore
gon and in all other states in
which registration is possible.
At the luncheon, both Mrs.
Green and Mr. W yatt made
further statements to the
effect th at the national
leadership of Common Cause
is unrepresentative of its
membership.
"In fact." said
the Common Cause leaders,
"the organization is run by
the national governing board,
which is elected directly by
the entire membership. Fur

im agine any organization
with more democratic pro
cedures, short of a iuwn
meeting.”
Mrs. Green and Mr. W yatt
also objected to having to
cope with volume letter mail
ing from members of citizens'
lobbies.
Habernigg and
Ixiwenstein stated that “it
has always been our under
standing that effective repre
sentative democracy requires
communication between con
stituents and their repre
sentatives. If they cannot be
counted through letters to
the congressmen, and by
working through groups like
Common Cause, what are
citizens to do?"
"W e
believe Common
Cause to be one of the most
effective tools yet developed
for citizens' participation in
government.
Many legis
la tors welcome input from
their constituents on impor
tant issues.
The growing
multitude of citizen members
of Common Cause pay their
dues and p articip ate in
making it the responsible
and effective organization it
is.
They need and want
access to their représenta
lives, and we intend to con
tinue to work toward that
end.”

the largest energy user. But there are
savings right at your fingertips! During
the day, leave your thermostat at the
lowest comfortable setting. And at night
lower it at least 10 degrees for addi­

You can save energy in many other
ways, too. Just remember to ... use what
you need, but save all you can!
