Chapman Seeks Re-election Bid
J
U.S. Rep. Jim Chapman has an-
nounced that he will seek re-v
election for his House seat in Texas'
First Cong»*«*«*ional District.
Chapman, 40, won a special elec-
tion on Aug. 3 of last year to fill the
vacancy created by Sam Hall, who
resigned to take a federal judicial
appointment. Rep. Chapman
released the following statement
regarding his re-election can-
didacy:
“In the 44 months I have been
privileged to serve as congressman
representing Texas' First District.
I have witnessed a tremendous
spirit of cooperation, concern and
courage from many people in this
country.
“During that time I have learned
a great deal about congressional
procedures in Washington and even
more about how to make Congress
work for my disrict. There is still
much to be done and more to be
learned, and with the approval of
the people in East Texas I intend to
continue that work in the 100th
Congress.
“As with my last campaign, my
re-election campaign will stress the
need for securing jobs and
revitalizing our economy. This
priority, which emphasizes
economic strength by protecting
American workers from unfair
foreign competition, has been a key
to my legislative agenda in
Congress and will continue to play a
major role in future endeavors.
“My steel trade bill introduced
last fall makes good sense for our
entire nation. The bill is designed to
close a loophole in the president'a
steel program and bring all nations
under the same playing rules - this
would mean that domestic
producers like Lone Star Steel and
FABSteel would be able to compete
on a level playing field for world
markets.
“Additionally. I have sought to
cut the federal deficit and in

December the House, the Senate
and the president all agreed on how
to balance the federal books by
1991.1 strongly supported the plan •
including efforts to begin the cut-
ting process right now, whiie ihc
economy is relatively strong - and
in the coming year I will push for a
balanced budget amendment under
the constitution.
“Iam especially pleased that the
Chapman plan to protect the Social
Security trust fund was included in
the budget-balancing package
passed in December.
“In East Texas I have worked
directly with business and com-
munity leaders to promote jobs and
economic growth. Last fall I spon-
sored an economic development
conference, held in Marshall, which
represented the first step in what
will be a series of coordinated effor-
ts to attract new businesses and in-
dustry to the First Congressional
Disrict.
“To assist in meeting this agen-
da, ! have worked hard at keeping
in touch with my constituents
through newsletters, radio shows,
newspaper columns and frequent
visits to communities throughout
East Texas. I have placed a high
priority on the theme of ‘working
together,' and am proud of what has
been accomplished in a few short
months.
, “It is with this pride that I ask
East Texans for their continued
support in the 1986 elections. We
have much work to do and I will
continue to fight tooth and nail for
the people of the First
Congressional District."
