U.S. Issuing New Rules to Gain Contracts

Even before the Clinton Administration issued new rules that would bar Federal contracts to chronic corporate lawbreakers, the United States Chamber of Commerce was attacking the rules, calling them an arbitrary ''blacklist'' and a sop to organized labor. The proposed rules, to be announced today, recommend that Federal procurement officers award no contracts to companies guilty of repeated and substantial violations of law on discrimination, labor, tax, environmental or antitrust. ''The Federal Government should not enter into contracts with contractors who do not comply with the law,'' said the new regulations, which expand on existing rules saying the Government should

Amity Shlaes: Like slop in the trough

Meet Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Pork. Well, actually he is Sen. Harkin, D-Iowa. It is the pork part that comes to mind in the Senate Agriculture Committee chairman's briefings last week about the new farm bill. Harkin promised to "ensure the vitality and prosperity of America's farms." The word "pork" nowadays has a generic meaning, referring to all goodies that lawmakers give to constituent groups.
