An Inclusive Litany
5/4/92
In the wake of the House Bank affair, Rep. Jack Brooks (D-TX) was
pessimistic about the future. Without interest-free overdraft
protection for their checking accounts, Brooks said in the
New York Times,
congressmen will either be "living in sleeping bags and sleeping in
their offices and riding bicycles to work" or "they'll be right-wing
extremists getting chauffeured around in Cadillacs."
