Recycle empty aerosol cans along with

A Message From The Michigan Department Of Agriculture
months ago, has slipped because
of an affiance of groups from op-
posite poles of the political spec-
trum.
Civil liberties organizations are
upset because of provisions that
would make it easier to deport
aliens suspected of connections
to terrorist groups; conservatives
are increasingly queasy about the
possibility that the new law
would significantly expand fed-
eral powers.
Those strange bedfellows have
slowed a bill that seemed to be on
the congressional fast-track in
the days after the Oklahoma City
bombing.
But a number of other factors
may tip the balance in favor of
the bill when House members re-
turn in September, said Michael
Lieberman, Washington counsel
for the Anti-Defamation League,
a group that has played a major
role in prodding the administra-
tion to move on terrorism.
Those factors include the re-
cent order tightening security at
U.S. airports in anticipation of vi-
olence in response to the arrest
of Hamas leader Mussa Abu
Marzook in New York, and the
indictment of defendants in the
Oklahoma City blast. But the
overcrowded legislative calendar
is working against backers of a
tough anti-terror bill.
Dole Pulls
Welfare Bill
The abrupt postponement of Sen-
ate debate on a sweeping welfare
reform proposal was bad news for
Sen. Bob Dole, R-Kans., the ma-
jority leader and apparent fron-
trunner in the race for the 1996
GOP presidential nomination.
But it may be good news for
Jewish groups working to soften
provisions of the measure that
would punish teen-age mothers,
cut off an array of benefits for the
nation's poorest citizens and hit
hard at immigrants.
Mr. Dole pulled the welfare re-
form bill when it became clear
that his own party was hopelessly
divided. A competing proposal by
Sen. Phil Gramm, R-Texas, Mr.
Dole's closest rival in the presi-
dential sweepstakes, enjoys con-
siderable congressional support;
the Gramm measure proposes
even more restrictive policies and
bigger cuts.
Both bills would have a par-
ticularly destructive impact on
the nation's children, according
to Rabbi David Saperstein of the
Religious Action Center of Re-
form Judaism.
"The impact of the proposals
by Senators Dole and Gramm ac-
tually discourages family values,
and discourages welfare recipi-
ents from becoming self- suffi-
cient," he said. "This is less
welfare reform than welfare abo-
lition."
