Description

Handwritten letter as president, thanking a chairman for "helping to turn the tide on the deficit"

ALS as president, one page, 7 x 10.5, White House letterhead, October 19, 1993. Letter to "Mr. Chairman," Dan Rostenkowski, the Chair of the House Ways and Means Committee, in full: "I wish I could join you for dinner tonight—the last time you took me to dinner in Chicago I didn't get hungry for three days! I am very grateful for your leadership—you've been a critical force in helping to turn the tide on the deficit and all the other reforms in reconciliation, including real help for lower income working families with children, and much needed improvement and expansion of the college loan program. If everyone wanted to face our problems and make progress as badly as do, we could turn our country around much more quickly." In fine condition. Daniel David Rostenkowski was a United States Representative from Chicago, serving from 1959 to 1995. He became one of the most powerful legislators in Washington, especially in matters of taxation, until he went to prison.
