Key Facts
President Reagan meets with Bipartisan Members of Congress to discuss the recent Bonn Economic Summit.
President Reagan attends a National Security Council meeting to discuss stockpiling strategic weapons.
Still waking up on Europe time—early. An early meeting with a bipartisan group of Congress leaders—minus Tip O’Neill & Jim Wright. We reported on the trip which was a different story than they’ve been getting in the press who are determined to picture a very successful trip as a failure. Bad cess to them! Then an N.S.C. meeting to talk about stock piling strategic materials. We’ve had a study going which found the 1979 plan a shambles.
An issues briefing lunch. Then desk work & finally a full cabinet meeting to hear about the budget plan which passed the Sen. Then a Cab. affairs briefing on our tax simplification plan. We’ll be back at that tomorrow. Mermie is here for a couple of days.
