SUBJECT : Proposed Authorization Language for EEOC Technical Assistance Revolving Account

Attached is the language we discussed regarding authorizing the establishment of a Technical Assistance Revolving Account for the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. The language has been reviewed and approved by OMB.

Senator Dole's sponsorship of (and your staff work on) the technical assistance provisions of the ADA will prove invaluable to our efforts to secure passage of this proposed language.

I look forward to meeting with you on Thursday, September 19 at 10:00 a.m. Kassie Billingsley, Director, Financial and Resource Management Services will accompany me.
