A Roll call report By Roll Call Report WASHINGTON—Here’s how area members of Congress were recorded on major roll call votes November 3-8. HOUSE OPlC—Adopted, 285 for and 111 against, an amendment requiring that at least 50 per cent of financial backing provided by the Overseas Private Investment Corp. (OPIC) go to what the Small Business Administration defines as “small businesses.’’ OPIC is a government cor poration whose mission, in part, is to isnure investments made overseas by U.S. companies. This amendment was attached to a bill (HR 9179) that already had recommended but not required strong backing of small businesses. The bill, later passed and sent to conference with the Seante, extends the life of OPIC until Sept. 30, 1981. Members voting “yea” favored the requirement that 50 percent of OPIC financial backing be earmarked to small businesses. Reps. Bo Ginn (D-l), Jack Brinkley (D-3), Elliott Levitas (D-4), Wyche Fowler (D-5), John Flynt (D-6), Lawrence McDonald (D-7) Billy Lee Evans (D-8), Ed Jenkins (D-9) and Doug Barnard (D-10) voted “yea.” Rep. DaWson Mathis (D-2) did not vote. ABORTION—Refused, 172 for and 193 against, to agree to Senate language allowing federal funding of abortions (primarily through Medicaid) when at least one of the following conditions is present: 1) The mother’s life is endangered. 2) The mother would suffer longterm and severe physical damage. 3) The pregnancy resulted from rape or incest. With this vote the House refused to budge from its more restrictive abortion language, which allows federal funding only when the mother’s life is endangered. The vote came during consideration of the conference report on the fiscal 1978 funding bill for the departments of Labor and Health, Education and Welfare. The House’s refusal to go along with the Senate perpetuated the four-months-old dispute bet ween the chambers on abortion. Members voting “yea” favored accepting the less restrictive Senate language on abortions. Ginn, Levitas and Fowler voted “yea.” Flynt, McDonald, Evans, Jenkins and Barnard voted “nay.” Mathis and Brinkley did not vote. SENATE SOCIAL SECURITY—Pas-1 sed, 42 for and 25 against, a bill (HR 9346) to financially strengthen Social Security, primarily by means of large increases over the next several years in employer and em ployee taxation rates and in the wage base upon which Social Security taxes are levied. It was sent to conference with the House. A worker earning SIO,OOO annually would see his Social Security tax increased from its present $585 to $7lO by 1986, while workers in higher wage brackets and employers would have their Social Secuirty taxes increased at a greater rate. Senators voting “yea” favored passage of the Social Security bill. Sen. Herman Talmadge (D) voted “yea” and Sen. Sam Nunn (D) voted “nay.” SOCIAL SECUIRTY—Ad opted, 59 for and 28 against, an amendment setting 70 years as the age a Social Secuirty pensioner could be freed of an “earnings limitation” on out side income he or she takes in to bolster the Social Security check. Currently there is a $3,000 earnings limitation no matter the pesnioner’s age. This language was adopted in place of a more liberal proposal that the earnings limitation be lifted at 65 years. It was at tached to HR 9346, the Social Security reform bill (see above vote). The bill was sent to conference with the House where final versions of the earnings-limitation language and other provisions will be worked out. Senators voting “nay” generally favored lifting the limitation on outside income once a person turns 65 years old. Nunn voted “yea” and Talmadge voted “nay.” SOCIAL SECURITY—Fa vored, 42 for and 41 against, a proposal that, for the first time would require employers to pay a greater share of the Social Security payroll tax than certain of their employees pay. That would be achieved by taxing employers on a larger wage base than employees are taxed on. This vote tabled an amendment to maintain the SO SO split that has prevailed throughout the history of Social Security. It came during debate on HR 9346, the Social Security reform bill, later passed and sent to conference with the House. The House favors keeping the 50-50 arrangement. Senators voting “yea” en dorsed the concept of shifting a majority of the taxation burden to employers. Talmadge voted “nay" and Nunn did not vote. gitt ®s&£4 /wji »><? rx 1 -*—j tjt ~x_ v— < <b" At m*' ■ JI ®L ■ W V| / i <fl , SHREVEPORT, La.—A postal worker sorts through an estimated 20,000 letters laid out on the floor of the main post office here.
