Citizens' Research Foundation notes that campaign spending climbs with each cycle. The 1984 presidential candidates were expected to spend more than double their 1972 counterparts, while House and Senate races would see costs nearly seven times higher.
White House communications chief Patrick Buchanan, upset by negative publicity, plans to speak more with reporters. The Washington Times cited his February appointment and cited episodes including Reagan’s failed Nicaragua aid bid and a visit to a German cemetery. He said he wanted to be seen as adviser rather than spokesman and had been a visible conservative commentator.
Joseph R. Wright Jr. told the Senate that pressuring an Energy Department regulator in 1982 to speed price gouging charges against a company in which he owns about 250000 dollars in stock was not improper. Senator Gore said the case appeared fixed and cited Wright’s role as deputy budget director and OMB chair. Wright’s family holds 20 percent of Anchor Gasoline and Canal Refining stock through relatives.
Two Midwestern lawmakers John Porter and Tim Penny proposed a 1986 budget starting with a freeze on all federal spending at current levels. They warn the Senate plan’s defense inflation adjustment and Social Security cuts undermine parity and could fail without universal restraint. They estimate $44.5 billion in savings toward a $50 billion deficit goal, advocating bipartisan support for an across the board freeze.
