Char lie Rose, and Senators John East and Jesse Helms in the past few months on the pro posed changes in the Rural Electrification Administra tion. Anne Higgins, Director of Correspondence for the Rea gan White House, responded that the President wants his total package of economic recovery passed in total with out any changes. The U.S. Congress is well on its way with the Reagan package. "The same type of res ponse has been received from every official of the Reagan administration," said Jim Autry, spokesman for LREMC. "Our letters to the congressmen and the Presi dent stated that Office of Management and Budget Di rector David Stockman's plan for cutting the REA erron eously said the cuts would help beat inflation...but they won't." "Since the REA revolving 'und does just that... revolve money back and forth from the REA to the electric and telephone cooperatives, there is no impact on the federal budget," said Autry. "The consumers of rural electric cooperatives have paid their own way for over 40 years, but cuts in the RRA will increase rate* to rural consumers unfairly," RaipofliflM to iitttii mil to Rep. Charlie Rose wars en couraging as Rose is support Ive of the RIA as R presently esists. However, e recent constituent survey by Rose shewed thai *1 persent of the people In his district did not ??jto'f*' f 4 favor keeping the status quo in the REA. "Lack of know ledge has led the public to believe that Reagan's cuts in the REA financing authority will reduce the federal debit . and again, it won't," said Autry. senator John East sent a letter to President Reagan on May 30 urging President Reagan to look closer at the proposed REA changes as they were concerned with off-budget items which would not help the American eco nomic recovery. East's responses to mem bers and employees were most encouraging as work continues on the Reagan budget. The only responses from Senator Jesse Helms did not help restore confidence in his support of the REA, according to Autry. "Our letters from Helms must have been mixed up by some of his staff." said Autry. "All of them were letters of regret that he could not meet us at a reception for the National Association of Realtors!" ? "We will continue to work with our congressmen to keep the REA program strong and J intact for the future," said Autry. "they have been con tacted by letters, by phone and In person over the pest four months. Our youtty rep resentatives have spoked with them as well as our contacts la the North Carolina Coopera tive Council, the North Caro lina Association of Electric Cooperatives and the National Rural Blectrlc Cooperative "Contact with congressmen bp their la meat important."
