Reagan backs private tuition tax credits and school prayer
President Reagan urged the Knights of Columbus to back private school tuition tax credits and a prayer amendment while pledging to end abortion on demand. He argued the plan would raise standards in public schools and noted the burden on low income families paying both private tuition and taxes for public schools. He condemned court decisions on school prayer and praised the Knights for supporting deterrence and morality as he wrapped a 14 day Iowa trip focused on grain contracts with the Soviet Union.

Byron legislation would restrict technology trade
Representative Beverly Byron introduced the Strategic Trade Act of 1982 to centralize export license reviews for U S developed technology. The bill creates a new Department of Defense agency to coordinate control of civilian goods that may be diverted for war use, expands federal court jurisdiction in violations, and strengthens executive power over exports. The proposal cites current pipeline technology concerns and calls for an organized defense framework.
