The Honorable George Bush
president of the Senate
Washington, D.C. 20510
Dear Mr. President:
This letter transmits for the consideration of the Congress
a proposed "Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year
1985."
To continue the progress which the Executive and
Legislative Branches have taken together toward revitalization
of our nation's intelligence mission, sufficient resources in
Fiscal Year 1985 must be provided to ensure availability of the
intelligence capabilities needed to meet the challenges facing
the Intelligence Community. I am confident that the Congress
will provide the sources needed to continue the progress which
we have sought together.
The proposed Intelligence Authorization Act is accompanied
by a detailed section-by-section explanation. Timely
consideration of the "Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal
Year 1985" would be most welcome. The Office of Management and
Budget has advised that enactment of this proposed legislation
would be in accordance with the President's program.
