Statement of Administration Policy: H.R. 1385 - Making Permanent the Martin Luther King, Jr., Federal Holiday Commission

April 13, 1989

STATEMENT OF ADMINISTRATION POLICY

(House)
(Clay (D) MO and 84 others)

The Administration has no objection to House passage of H.R. 1385, but believes a five-year extension of the Commission, as proposed in S. 431, would be preferable. The approach in the Senate bill would foster the desirable objective of ensuring periodic consideration of federally-supported activities.
