not President Bill Clinton, with bal-
ancing the federal budget.
Reeds, an attorney in Walled Lake,
said a key issue is campaign finance
reform, an issue Knollenberg voted
against in Congress on Aug. 3, 1998.
"We need to level the playing field by
limiting soft money spending and
money from special interest groups,"
Reeds said.
Another key for Reeds is the protec-
tion of the environment. "It shouldn't be
a question that we should protect the
environment and enforce Environmental
Protection Agency regulations," he said.
"The Republicans seem to be more con-
cerned with big business."
Reeds' background in politics
comes from his family and their asso-
ciation with the Democratic Party.
Two years ago he helped Steven
Kaplan's unsuccessful campaign for
county prosecutor.
Knollenberg, who was elected to
Congress in 1992 as the handpicked
successor to the retiring Broomfield,
was active in Oakland County
Republican politics for years. In
Washington, he serves on the House
Appropriations Committee and the
Subcommittees on Energy and Water
Development, and Foreign
Operations, Export Financing, and
related programs. He also serves on
the House Education and the
Workforce Committee; and the House
Standards of Official Conduct (Ethics)
Committee.
Gach, a West Bloomfield builder,
ran for state Senate four years ago, los-
ing to incumbent Gary Peters in the
14th District. He finished third in a
four-man race for the 11th District
Congressional seat in 1996.
Gach is a life-long member of
Temple Beth El.
He already has his mind set on an
amendment he would sponsor if elect-
ed. "Congress shall make no laws that
prohibit private, consensual adult
behavior that neither harms nor jeopar-
dizes the property of another," he said.
While Gach realizes the amend-
ment would decriminalize drugs, he
doesn't think it should be the federal
government's job to regulate. "It does-
n't mean that we can't prohibit the sale
of drugs to minors," he said. "But the
war on drugs is little by little hurting
the Bill of Rights.
"Not giving student loans to people
who are convicted of drug crimes hurts
the people who will need it the most."
Gach is in favor of federal funding
for a needle distribution program for
users of intravenous drugs. Knollenberg
voted against that bill this past April. O
