A-8 Washington, D.C. Green Bay Press-Gazette Thursday, August 11, 1994 House may lose travel perks Clinton: Dismiss Jones' lawsuit By Erfn Kelly Gannett News Service WASHINGTON Congress members may have lost their fire quent-flier perks thanks to a reform effort pushed through the House Wednesday night by a group of freshman lawmakers. Freshmen Reps. Karan English, and Ted Strickland, D-Ohio, forced a vote on an amendment that would ban House members and their staffs from earning free family vacations at taxpayer expense. The amendment, which English succeeded in tacking onto a larger Congressional Accountability Bill, was approved by 'voice vote.

It still must go before a conference committee of House and Senate members. "I'm really not sure that this will, improve the status of Congress in the eyes of the public, but it's a little step in the light direction," Strickland said Wednesday night House members can use their of Crime bill backers predict House win! His lawyer said trying the case now would establish a 'dangerous precedent' By James Jefferson Associated Press President Clinton claimed presidential immunity Wednesday in asking a federal judge to dismiss a former state employee's sexual harassment lawsuit against him. In documents filed in U.S. District Court in Little Rock, Clinton denied allegations by Paula Corbin Jones that he made unwanted sexual advances toward her when he was governor of Arkansas and asked that her complaint be dismissed at least until after he leaves office. Jones' attorneys were not available for comment.

Litigating a private, civil damage lawsuit against a sitting president would compromise the authority and dignity of the office, said Robert Bennett, the president's personal attorney, in a memorandum filed in support of a motion to dismiss the case. "To allow such a suit to go forward will establish a novel and dangerous precedent that will do great damage to the institution of the presidency," he said. It would "enable those seeking to promote personal or political agendas to place their own selfish interests above those of the American people," he said. The Justice Department is considering filing legal documents supporting Bennett's position. Department lawyers have drafted a friend-of-the-court brief, but no final decision has been made.

Bennett also sought dismissal of proceedings against Danny WASHINGTON (AP) Supporters of a $33.2 billion crime bill are predicting narrow victory in the House after pushing the legislation toward a final vote even though they needed a few more converts to ensure passage. "I guess there's a feeling that somehow the members won't let this bill go down," said Rep. Charles Schumer, chairman of the House Judiciary Com DEATH NOTICES RECORDS mittee's crime panel Rep. Bill Richardson of New Mexico, the Democrats' deputy whip, said, "ItH be a squeaker, but we'll win it. We're within five votes and we've got momentum." The legislation would put 100,000 more police on the street and provide billions for prisons and crime prevention.

It also would make more than 50 additional crimes subject to the death penalty, mandate life sentences for Nichols Paper Products a related firm located in Nichols, Wis.
