SUBJECT: Polygraph Bill (S. 1845)
1. On 20 December 1978, the undersigned called David Barrett of
the Department of Justice regarding subject bill, in an effort to
determine where things stood in connection with an effort by Justice
to assemble a coordinated Administration position.
2. Barrett said that Justice's effort had not worked out, that
there was no coordinated Administration position at this point, and
that he had no definite information on plans for reintroduction of the
bill in the 96th Congress.
3. Marsha Atcheson, Assistant Counsel on the staff of the Senate
Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution is the key staff person. We
will coordinate changes desired in the bill with OGC and the Office of
Security and contact her directly so that we can make our case prior to
reintroduction.
