TWELVE The Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday March 8, 1979 Bill Bellamy: 'Letter to Constituency9 By Bill Bellamy As the deadline for filing legislation approaches in the Oregon House and Senate, some of the bills that legisla tors seem to deal with each session have been introduced once again. The major bills which come to niind are the gay right's bill, lowering the drinking age to 18, the abolishment of the recently reinstated death pen alty, and the banning of the use of pesticides and chemi cals. In voting upon these particu lar bills. I definitely rely on my basic background and the interest, wishes, and concerns of my constituency in Dist. 55. I feel that my own personal views should effect legislation only if they reflect the will of the majority of people in Dist. 55. When addressing the issue of the death penalty, I will support the vote of the majority of the people of Dist. 55 in the last general election. I believe that almost all areas of the district overwhelmingly supported the reinstatement of the death penalty. Most of you by examining my background or just by knowing me realize my posi tions on these issues. How ever, if any of you are converned about my particu lar beliefs on certain bills please feel free to contact me either by calling or writing my office. Much discussion is arising over a U.S. Constitutional amendment that has been introduced in the" Oregon Legislature. The amendment would grant the city of Washington D.C. the right to elect one representative to the U.S. House and two U.S. Senators to serve in the U.S. Senate. Presently, I oppose the Washington D C. amend ment. I feel that it is not in the best interest of Oregonians and the people of Dist. 55 to allow the addition of two more Senators. These two Senators will not represent a land mass nor will they represent any business or industry other than government. Ullman on reforesting Cont. from page 1 1 "I am pleased to see that Senator Bob Packwood of Oregon has joined this fight. The reforestation issue can use all the support it can get. "While there is some merit in a portion of Senator Packwood's proposal, the trust fund concept is one of those politically popular gim micks that will have little actual long-range impact on the level of spending for reforestation. "The problem with this approach is that the psychol ogy of the Appropriations Committees is to look at the total level of funding, rather than the source of funds. "I think the people in the lumber business, as well as other interested in the conser vation of our forest resources, understand the problem too well to buy this kind of easy answer to a tough on-going problem."

The Heppner Legislator seek input from District 55 residents Since there are only KH Senators serving in the U.S. Senate, I question the idea of adding two more for only a city: 1 become very concerned about the amount of power influence these particular people could gain. 1 would appreciate com- TOn' 'or fh rumnl. of th(l district concerning this prop used amendment . I expect il to surface for a vote on the floor in perhaps the next three weeks. It has already passed the Oregon Senate by a vote of 20 to ! However, if it is going to be ratified by the Stale ol Oregon, n will require a in. i ority vole from the Oregon House 1 look lor a very healed debate over this issue and I dope in,- Oregon's sake that the amendment not receive the required majority to pass. Then' are various, perhaps unkmiu ii. methods to contact the I ei'i-h'tire to obtain hearing information. Many of you are interested in provid ing testimony or at least attending hearings on particu lar bills. I strongly encourage you to call the toll free information number to insure l hat you have the correct bill number, the correct hearing time and date, and the room number. It is unfortunate when people travel a great distance to discover their hearing was scheduled on another date. The toll free number is 1-800-452-0290. I encourage the public to take advantage of this service. I also encourage any inter ested citizen to please contact me at my office and we can verify hearing information and will be glad to make any arrangements necessary to enable you to testify. I would also like to include a toll free number which people use to contact my office. It is 1-800-452-7813. My secretary will take your name and I will return the call on the outgoing WATS line as soon as I return. My address at my Salem office is: Billy C. Bellamy; House of Representatives H371; Salem, Oregon 97310. I encourage any information, input or advise from the people of Dist. 5 5. Thank You.
