Los Angeles (JTA) — A
California legislator has
learned, somewhat to her
surprise, that the expression
"jew down" is not acceptable
language on the floor of the
State Assembly.
Assemblywoman Kathleen
Honeycutt, a first-term
Republican from San Ber-
nardino County outside Los
Angeles, used the offensive
phrase while commenting on
the practice of some general
contractors in the construc-
tion industry to squeeze
their subcontractors finan-
cially.
The practice, Ms.
Honeycutt said, "gives the
contractor great leverage to
kind of jew down the subcon-
tractor," the Los Angeles
Times reported.
After she finished her
remarks, a fellow legislator
told her in measured tones
that he found the term offen-
sive. Ms. Honeycutt
apologized, but the matter
did not rest there.
The following day, the
debate was rebroadcast to
2.6 million cable television
subscribers, eliciting pro-
tests from some viewers and
from other legislators in a
state still nervous about past
and potential ethnic ten-
sions.
Two Jewish legislators and
11 others issued a sharply
worded letter urging
Honeycutt to "reflect upon
her comment and attitude."
Ms. Honeycutt, who won
election last November after
running on a Christian fun-
damentalist, anti-abortion
platform, apologized again
in an interview, but initially
managed to dig her hole a
little deeper.
"I had used the term in the
past and never thought of
the offense it would cause
someone who is Jewish," she
said. "It just had not oc-
curred to me." She added,
however, that "I needed cor-
recting on it, and I stand cor-
rected."
Ms. Honeycutt also
assured the news media that
she had "some very dear
(Jewish) family friends,"
among them a man who
gave her her first job, the
doctor who delivered her
children and a dentist for
whom her mother worked.
"They are all wonderful
Jewish people," she con-
cluded. ❑

Man is truly great only
when he acts from his pas-
sions.
—Benjamin Disraeli
