1. The ,President in a Memorandum for the Heals of Departments
and Agenciesdated 15 November 1965 requcs 'l personal consideration of
legislative or other proposals which he shout, ::take to the second session
of the 89th Congress. In that same memora'.'n he requested material
which the President could include in his State ::~e Union Message. A
suspense-date of 3 December was set by the President.
2. While it is doubtf.l that we would have any material for
inclusion in the State of the Union Message, we wish to determine if there
sre legislative needs of any Agency component. Rather than submission
of wxiften,re,ports or legislative proposals frc each component, suggest
that you or your designated representative co: :t the undersigned for
discussion of any such proposals. Thereafter specific proposals, if any,
will be prepared for coordination and final approval.

MMM-'EMORANDUM FOR
THE HEADS OF DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES
Many of you have already made legislative recommendations to
the Executive Office under established procedures, or have partici-
pated in preliminary discussions of legislation with White House staff.
These are now under careful study.
As I did last year, however, I am again asking 'each of you person-
ally to consider the legislative or other proposals which I should make
to the second session of the 89th Congress and to the Nation in my
Sate of the Union Address.
I would like you to suggest specific draft material relating to your
area of responsibility which might suitably be included in the State of
the Union Message. The material should come to my Special Assistant,
Joseph A. Califano, Jr. by December 3d. The Bureau of. the Budget
should receive brief descriptions of any legislative proposals in support
of State of the Union material which you submit by the same date, if
such proposals have not already been submitted through usual channels.
It is particularly important that legislative proposals be transmitted to
this second session of the 89th Congress. early in the session. Draft
legislation must be submitted for the usual review and coordination at a
sufficiently early date to make this possible.
I am seeking your assistance in developing and perfecting imaginative
programs which will maintain our security, continue our prosperity, and
improve the quality of life for all.. But next year. -- more than ever
before -- you must press forward in your search for new programs to
increase governmental'efficiency, to eliminate waste wherever it is
found, and to modernize our Government. .
