Agency for Consumer Advocacy faces House vote
Ronald Reagan argues against a proposed Consumer Advocacy Agency as House action looms. He cites a public Opinion Research Corp survey showing 75 percent oppose the agency and warns of a creeping bureaucracy that would equate consumer opinions with those of all Americans. He questions who would represent consumers and notes labor exemptions and secrecy fears. Embedding a dated Saigon embassy raid reference adds historical context.
