WASHINGTON — Congress-
man Tom Loeffler has intro-
duced a House Resolution which
would “freeze” the total num-
ber of House staff members.
The Resolution was co-
introduced by Congressman
Jim Leach (R-Iowa).
Loeffler, a member of the Se-
lect Committee on Committees
(a reform committee which' will
attempt to streamline and cut
down on House committee
structure), said that while the
committee study was being car-
ried out, “I feel that an immed-
iate freeze on committee staff is
certainly justified.”
Loeffler, making reference to
the rising cost of government
administration, said, “As we
stand on the threshold of the
first ‘billion dollar Congress’,
there should no longer be any
doubt that we must now take
steps to hold the line on federal
employment, and the first place
to start is right here in the
House of Representatives.”
Citing an all-government
payroll of $253 billion annually,
Loeffler said, “This amount is
roughly equal to 12 percent of
our Gross National Product and
is increasing at a dangerous
rate.
“Today there are more
people supported by tax dollars
on government payrolls and off
than there are workers in the
private sector,” the Congress-
man said, citing figures of
80,655,000 tax dependents ver-
sus 71,650,000 non-government
workers.
“But before we can begin to
reduce this bloated bureauc-
racy to a lean, manageable,
efficient size, we must halt the
expansion of our own staff,” he
said.
Loeffler charged that the
group of directly and indirectly
employed government workers
make up “the complex, frus-
trating and infuriating bureauc-
racy which is so costly, and
which is the prime generator of
the double digit inflation we
suffer.”
Loeffler said that additional
appropriate legislative initia-
tives would be introduced in the
near future, all designed to con-
trol and reduce the bureauc-
racy.
“I am very pleased to join
Jim Leach in introducing this
first step of a much needed
initiative,” he concluded.
