Fields proposes two
debates with Buford
i
U.S. Rep. Jack Fields has pro-
posed two debates with Don
Buford, including one in
Baytown.
Fields, R-Humble, and
Buford, D-Houston, will face
each other in the race for
District 8 U.S. representative in
the November general election.
In a letter to Buford, Fields
proposes to hold the debate in
Baytown, in the southern portion
of the district, sometime during
the July 4 congressional recess
(June30-July 22).
Fields proposes to hold the se-
cond debate in Kingwood, at the
northern end of ,the district,
sometime during the Labor Day
congressional recess (Aug. 11-
Sept. 4).
Buford is on vacation this
week and could not be reached
for comment.
A spokeswoman for the Buford
Fields schedules
campaign said Buford had not
seen the letter and probably
would not be available for com-
ment until early next week.
During the primary cam-
paign, Buford said he wanted to
debate Fields.
Fields also proposes that the
League of Women Voters in
Baytown and Kingwood
moderate and sponsor the
debates.
He also suggests that each
debate last 60 to 90 minutes and
that members of the news media
be permitted to ask questions.
“I would suggest that there be I c
no questions from the audience, lte *
so as to discourage any attempt
to ‘pack’ the audience,” Fields
says in the letter.
