FEDERATION OF WESTERN OUTDOOR CLUBS







UNNECESSARY MILITARY SPENDING
1995 FWOC Resolution No. 12:

The military budget of $270 billion passed by the 104th Congress for 1995-1996 is totally irresponsible.  It's a shame that a large bunch of Congressmen got elected after pledging to eliminate wasteful spending, eliminate "pork barrel" projects and put the line-item veto into operation, and so far, NONE of these pledges to the citizens of the U.S. have been fulfilled.
The prosperity of this country should not depend on military spending.  The military, and its Congressional Oversight committees, should be frugal with all taxpayers money and avoid waste.  Furthermore, the military should be required to obey all anti-pollution regulations and practice recycling.

The Federation of Western Outdoor Clubs endorses decreased military spending on non-essential items, and insists on the military's observance of all anti-pollution laws, and avoidance of waste.
