.OFFICE OF LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL
Monday - 9 September 1974
Called John Martiny, General Counsel,
Hise Post Office and Civil Service Committee, to determine the status
Of H. R. JZ J, a bill protecting the constitutional rights of Federal employees,
which is scheduled for markup 12 September by the Subcommittee on
Retirement and Employee Benefits, House Post Office and Civil Service
Committee. The bill grants the FBI, NSA and CIA an exemption from
section (a) which establishes all of the rights to employees. This is the
same exemption as granted in a similar bill introduced last Congress
by Representative James Hanley (D., N. Y.), former Chairman of the
Subcommittee. Martiny assured me that the exemption from section (a)
is in effect a total exemption. He is concerned about an amendment by
Representative Morris Udall (D. , Ariz.) requiring agencies to report
on their implementation of the bill. He (Martiny) will follow the bill
closely and suggested if we have comments we hold them for the full
Committee.
