he rivalry between
Reps. Chuck Schumer
and Stephen Solarz,
two Jewish Democrats who
represent neighboring New
York congressional districts,
is legendary on Capitol Hill.
But last week, the two legis-
lators found an issue that
transcended their differ-
ences: David Duke.
The two hosted a bi-
partisan meeting of Jewish
legislators to discuss the
November 16 gubernatorial
election in Louisiana which
pitted the former Nazi and
Ku Klux Klan leader against
former Gov. Edwin Edwards.
"It was a very intense
discussion," said a source
who attended the meeting.
"Rep. Billy Tauzin (a Loui-
siana Democrat) made a
very frightening presenta-
tion — that Duke could very
well win. It really shook
people up."
The legislators agreed to
help raise money for Mr.
Edwards in an effort to
counteract Mr. Duke's heavy
inflow of out-of-state money.
"All of us are going to have
to look into the mirror and
say, 'did I do everything I
could to defeat this guy in
time?"' Mr. Solarz told the
group.
Mr . Solarz also warned
that if Mr. Duke won the elec-
tion, he would have "instant
credibility" that might serve
as the base for a presidential
bid in 1996.
Recently, Mr. Schumer
reported raising almost
$6,500 for the Edwards
campaign.
"Seeing Duke's picture in

Rep. Schumer:
Fearful of Duke.

Rep. Solarz:
For the greater cause.

the New York Times is like a
punch in the stomach," he
said. "It's frightening — and
it's even more frightening
because of the potential for
bad economic times, when
this kind of racism and anti-
Semitism finds a more re-
ceptive audience."

Jews Will Benefit
From Civil Rights Bill

Last week's final passage
of the Civil Rights Act of
1991 represented the end of
a long struggle for Jewish
groups here — and the
beginning of a new phase in
the effort to protect the civil
rights advances of the past
few decades.
Although the bill was not
written specifically to ad-
dress Jewish concerns, parts
of the measure will help
American Jews, according to
Michael Lieberman, associ-
ate director of the Anti-
Defamation League's Wash-
ington office.
One provision, for exam-
ple, would reverse a court
decision ruling that job dis-
crimination laws do not app-
ly to U.S. citizens working

for American companies in
other countries — something
that could affect Jews work-
ing for oil companies and
others.
Other provisions will pro-
tect workers from being fired
for religious reasons.
And the bill's inclusion of
monetary damages in cases
of intentional gender dis-
crimination could prove
useful to Jewish women.
"People haven't paid
enough attention to what
the bill will do for Jewish
workers, as well as members
of other minorities," Mr.
Lieberman said. "People are
frustrated by what the bill
could have been. But it's im-
portant to realize that this is
an important first step."
