Trial Lawyers endorse Ron Sutton for N.C. House
L**tbcrtom - Ron Sutton received the endorsement of
th? political action committee of the North Carolina
Academy ofTrial Lawyers for Representative in the 85th
N C. House District election which includes portions of
Rohesoo and Hoke Counties
The announcement was made April 13,1992 by Lum
hcrton attorney H. Mitchell Baker, III, who is a member
?f the North Carolina Academy of Trial Lawyers.
? payettevilie Public Defender Mary Ann Tally said,
"N'CATL-PAC does not require any candidate to pass my
"tmus test or to support or oppose any given set of issues
u ? prerequisite for endorsement or support. The Acad
and tha Academy's Political Action Committee do
support the unfettered access of the people to the court
system as well as jury trials for the resolutions of disputes
The Academy and the Academy's PAC also support the
rights guaranteed to those accused of a crime by the
United States and North Carolina Constitutions." Tally
added, "all endorsements are based on candidates'records
and their platforms. Our primary concern is the election
of someone with a history of supporting the rights of the
working men and women that trial lawyers represent and
preserving access to a fair jury system in which everyone
has the same chance to achieve justice." T?.?
The Academy of Trial Lawyers' PAC was formed in
1976 and is managed by a Board of Trustees.

SSCIA supports increased funding for Indian programs
Albuquerque, NM- After 15 years of almost constant
budget cuts, the Senate Select Committee on Indian
Affairs (SSCIA) has announced that it is supporting over
SI billion more for Indian programs for FY 93.
The Senate committee's proposal would total $5,758
billion for Indian program. This contrasts to $4,708
billion, whicrns the proposal from the White House.
Saying Indian programs had suffered "the deepest cuts
in federal spending," the Committee asked the Senate
Budget Committee under Jim Sasser (D-TN) to uphold
"its treaty responsibility to Indian tribes."
Sen. Daniel K. Inouye is Chair of the Committee, and
Sen. John McCain is Co-Chair. McCain, from Arizona,
has 23 Indian tribes in his state, while Inouye, from
Hawaii, has none.
Dr. Dean C havers, Founding President of the Coalition
for Indian Education in Albuquerque, praised the SSCIA
for its supportof Indian programs. "We are confident that
the new Committee, with its 16 members, will oppose the
cuts we have been having for so long," he said. "This
Committee is now one of the strongest and most influen
tial in the Senate, and its views are heard by many."
"Indian committees in both Houses of Congress are very
strong today," he added. "Ten years ago they were very
weak. We are very happy to see them returned to a
position of strength."
For FY 91, he pointed out, the SSCIA backed aSl billion
increase in Indian programs. This program passed, brin
ing Indian programs from $2.8 to $3.8 in budget author
ity. New programs and budget add-ons to existing pro
grams brought the total this year to S4.7. The Coalition,
he added further, is seeking a total federal budget for FY
96 of $9.9 billion.
This is the figure they would have to have for parity with
1975 budgets, Dr. Chavers asserted.
Among the changes proposed by the SSCIA are taking
JOM out of the Indian Priority System, and funding it at
$24.5 million. JOM would rise to $44.3 million in FY 97.
There is $2 million for tribal departments of education,
which will fund 20 such departments. The ISEF is to be
funded at $321 million, enough for increases in teacher
salaries and bilingual education. Haskell and SIPI would
be fully funded, and would not have to charge tuition.
Haskell also would get $3 million for a new dorm. School
construction would be funded at $90 million, and IHS
would be funded at $2,326 billion, $388 million over the
White House request. Imapct Aid would be funded at
$610 million, and Indian Housing would get $235 mil
lion, up from zero for the White House request.
