Dear David:
Thank you for your letter regarding the use of
an increased beer excise tax to fund health care
reform.
As you know, I favor a tobacco tax instead of
an alcohol tax to support health care reform. My
Administration weighed the concerns of the tobacco
industry against the health consequences of tobacco
use, and we concurred that the taxing of tobacco
products is an equitable method to fund health
care.
Your support and guidance will be instrumental
to the success of health care reform, and I look
forward to working closely with you in the coming
weeks and months.
Sincerely,
The Honorable David E. Skaggs
House of Representatives
Washington, D.C. 20515

Dear David:
Thank you very much for your letter to President Clinton
concerning funding for the health care reform package.
The President has been advised of your interest in this
matter and you should be hearing from him in the near future.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of further
assistance.

MEMORANDUM FOR IRA MAGAZINER
PASTER~
FROM:
HOWARD G.
SUBJECT:
BEER TAX AND HEALTH CARE REFORM
Attached is a copy of a letter that was sent to the President
from Ben Nighthorse Campbell (D-CO) and David Skaggs (D-CO). I
have also enclosed a copy of my acknowledgement letter to them.
The President has requested that he see and sign every letter
going to Capitol Hill. We did not want to fully answer the
questions addressed in this letter without assistance from your
office; therefore, I would appreciate your office drafting a
response and returning it to LeeAnn Inadomi (WH-East Wing) within
48 hours. She will then print the letter in final form and have
the President sign the letter.
Thank you very much for your assistance. If you have any
questions, please feel free to call LeeAnn at 456-7500.

The Honorable William J. Clinton
President of the United States
The White House
Washington, D.C. 20500
Dear Mr. President:
Recent news reports have indicated that an increase in the beer
excise tax will probably not be included as a funding source in
the health care reform package. We're writing to let you know
that we would strongly support this decision.
Beer consumption does not contribute to health care problems to
the same extent as tobacco. Given the generally regressive
nature of excise taxes, and the doubling of the beer excise tax
in 1991, we would hope that the health care package will not
again increase the beer excise tax.
We support and commend you for your work to address the health
care crisis, and we look forward to working with you to achieve
meaningful health care reform.
Sincerely,
n Ic o
