Introduction
------------
The Beltway FAQ lists information on how to reach out and touch, by
various means, your Federal representatives -- the President, the Vice
President, the Congress, and the Cabinet -- as well as selected Federal
agencies. It is intended for the politically active, and for those who
wish to obtain information on budgetary and legislative matters from and
about the Federal government.
This FAQ is a compendium of postings from various sources both printed
and electronic; source credits are listed at the end. It does not tell
you how to electronically access _every_ Federal library, database, or
BBS, but the source list, and a listing of some useful FAQs at the end
of this tome, will point you in the right direction.
Additions, corrections, and contributions will be warmly welcomed by the
author. Please send to Paul Havemann (paul@hsh.com).

1. 2. The White House by Email (The Official WH Email FAQ)
During Campaign '92, the Clinton Campaign made widespread use of
electronic media. A staffer named Jock Gill offered the use of his
CompuServe account to encourage the public to send comments to the
campaign. The account racked up hundreds of messages per day, often
resulting in bounced messages. The campaign organizations of the various
presidential candidates used Internet accounts to disseminate news
releases to certain Usenet news groups -- a practice the Clinton
Administration continues to this day.

I. HOW DO I SEARCH AND RETRIEVE WHITE HOUSE ELECTRONIC PUBLICATIONS?
The White House is pleased to announce the establishment of an Internet
address for retrieving White House publications. We have set up an
Almanac server to process requests by email. To receive instructions on
using this server, send a message to:
Publications@WhiteHouse.GOV
In the body of the message, type:
send info
Various additional sites are archiving the press releases as distributed.
What follows is an incomplete list of some of the sites containing the
documents that have been released to date. This FAQ will be updated to
reflect new sites as they become known.

1. Office for Information Technology at the University of
North Carolina maintains the full collection of White
House electronic releases available for search with WAIS and
also accessible via Gopher and FTP.
1.a WAIS

US These files are also available via anonymous ftp
from sunsite.unc.edu The files of type filename used in
the index were:
/home3/ftp/pub/academic/political-science/whitehouse-
papers/1993 ")
Folks without WAIS clients or gophers that act as WAIS
clients may telnet to sunsite.unc.edu and login as swais
to access this information via WAIS.
1.b GOPHER is a distributed menu system for information access on the
Internet developed at the University of Minnesota. gophers are
client-server implementations and various gopher clients are
available for nearly any computing platform. You may now use
gopher clients to access the White House Papers and other
political information on SunSITE.unc.edu's new gopher server.
You may also add links from your local gopher server to
SunSITE for access to the White House Papers.
For gopher server keepers and adventurous clients to access
SunSITE you need only know that we use the standard gopher
port 70 and that our internet address is SunSITE.unc.edu
(152.2.22.81). Point there and you'll see the references to
the Politics areas.
For folks without gopher clients can telnet to sunsite.unc.edu
to try out gopher access. You need to have access to internet
telnet and:
telnet sunsite.unc.edu
login: gopher
The rest is very straight forward. Browsing options end with a
directory mark (/), searching options end with an question mark
(?).
There's plenty of on-line help available.
2. No special instructions.
3. The CLINTON@MARIST log files which contain all the official
administration releases distributed through the MIT servers
are available via anonymous FTP. These logs contain in
addition to the official releases, the posts that comprise the
ongoing discussion conducted by the list subscribers.
To obtain the logs:
FTP MARISTB.MARIST.EDU - the logs are in the CLINTON directory
and are named CLINTON LOG9208 thru CLINTON LOGyymm where yymm
stands for the current year and month. Problems should be
directed to my attention: URLS@MARISTC.BITNET or
URLS@VM.MARIST.EDU.
Posted by Lee Sakkas - owner, CLINTON@MARIST
4. Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility is
providing all Clinton documents on technology and privacy
at the CPSR Internet Library, available via
FTP/WAIS/Gopher at cpsr.org /cpsr/clinton (and in other
folders as relevant). For email access, send a message
with the word "help" at the 1st line of text to
listserv@cpsr.org.
5. The FedWorld Computer System, operated by the National Technical
Information Service, archives White House papers in a
traditional BBS type file library. Connect to FedWorld by
calling (703) 321-8020. No parity, eight data bits and one stop
bit (N-8-1). FedWorld accommodates baud speeds of up to 9,600.
It is also possible to Telnet to FedWorld at FedWorld.doc.gov.
White House papers are located in the W-House library of files.
To access this library from the main FedWorld menu,
enter <f s w-house>. Files are named with the first four digits
being the release month and day (e.g. 0323XXX.txt). Some
standard abbreviations after the date include:
rem - Remarks by the President
pc - Press Conference transcript
pr - Press Release
AM - AM Press Briefing
PM - PM Press Briefing
sch - The President's public schedule
spch- Text of major speeches.
These files are saved in ASCII format. Files can be viewed
online by requesting to download a file and then selecting
(L)ist as the download protocol. This will display the file a
screen at a time. White House papers are kept in the above
format for up to two months. Papers more than two months old
are compressed using Pkzip into a single file that contains all
of the files for that month (e.g. 0193.zip contains all papers
released during January 1993). In addition to White Documents,
FedWorld also provides a gateway to more than 100 government
funded BBSs and computer systems.
6. Texas A&M University GOPHER Server makes available White House
press releases and other documents. This archive includes
information from 1992 until the present time and is updated
as new documents are released. Gopher users can reach the
Texas A&M server by choosing it from their local server's list
of other gophers, or by pointing their gopher clients to
GOPHER.TAMU.EDU.
After connecting to the A&M server, take the following path to
reach the White House menus:
"Browse Information by Subject" -->
"Political Science" -->
"Information from the White House"
Gopher maintainers and other intrepid souls are welcome to point
directly to the A&M White House archive. The server is
GOPHER.TAMU.EDU and the path is 11/.dir/president.dir.
II. HOW DO I SIGN UP FOR ELECTRONIC PUBLICATIONS BY THE WHITE HOUSE?
The White House Communications office is distributing press releases
over an experimental system developed during the campaign at the MIT
Artificial Intelligence Laboratory.
You can obtain copies of all the press releases from a wide variety of
on-line services or discussion groups devoted to either national
politics in general or President Clinton in particular. These are
listed in sections I and II.
Section IIc explains how you can sign up to receive press releases
directly from the experimental MIT system by using an automated email
server. The present system was not designed to handle high levels of
message traffic. A more powerful system will become available in due
course, and in the meantime, it would be appreciated if you used this
service sparingly. One appropriate current use is secondary
redistribution and archiving. If you use it, you will be carried forward
when the more powerful system that replaces it.

IIb. NOTES ON WIDELY AVAILABLE SOURCES
2. CompuServe's White House Forum (GO WHITEHOUSE) is devoted to
discussion of the Clinton administration's policies and
activities. The forum's library consists of news releases and
twice daily media briefings from the White House Office of Media
Affairs. CompuServe members can exchange information and
opinions with each other in the 17 sections in the forum's
message area. The message board spans a broad range of topics,
including international and United Nations activities, defense,
health care, the economy and the deficit, housing and
urban development, the environment, and education and national
service.
3. On America Online, the posts are sent to the White House Forum,
located in the News & Finance Department of the service or
accessible via keywords: "white house" or "clinton". The White
House Forum on America Online contains the press releases from
the White House, divided into the categories "Appointments",
"Budget", "Congress", "Education", "Economy", "Foreign Policy",
"Health Care", "Housing", "Labor", "Law and Order", "Meetings &
Speeches", "Proclamations", "Technology", and "Vice President".
The area features a message board so you can discuss the
releases with other AOL members, a searchable database for easy
retrieval of releases that interest you, a Library for longer
releases from the White House, and a library that members can
upload files of interest for other members.
4. MCI Mail users access daily information on the administration's
programs provided by the White House through MCI Mail bulletin
boards. The available boards are: WHITE HOUSE ECONOMIC, WHITE
HOUSE FOREIGN, WHITE HOUSE SOCIAL, WHITE HOUSE SPEECHES and
WHITE HOUSE NEWS. A listing of these boards can also be
obtained by simply typing VIEW WHITE HOUSE at the COMMAND
prompt.
5. On The Meta Network, material is posted in the White house
conference and is accessible via keywords (matching on document
titles and subject categories) as well as full text search.
Discussions on specific initiatives take place in special
interest forums, e.g. health, technology, and reinventing
government.
9. GEnie's White House RoundTable has been established to
distribute and discuss the official press releases and files
relating to the White House and the Clinton Administration. The
files library holds all of the press releases on the official
mailing list, and the Bulletin Board has Categories set up with
topics relating to all aspects of the Administration and
Executive Branch of government. Letters to the White House can
be entered easily online with a menu option on the WHITEHOUSE
page.
10. CompuServe's Democratic Forum (GO DEMOCRATS) is the Democratic
Party's online information service covering the activities of
the Clinton administration. The sysops of the Democratic Forum
work for the Democratic National Committee, and are directly
involved in managing the forum and responding to online
questions. The Democratic Forum provides access to documents
from the White House Office of Media Affairs, with vigorous
discussion and debate in the message sections about the impact
of the Clinton Administration's policies and proposals. The
Democratic Forum also holds a regular weekly online conference
with special guests on current topics.
IIc. DIRECT EMAIL DISTRIBUTION
If you don't have access to the these accounts or if you would prefer to
receive the releases via email, then this section details how to
sign up for this service. The server is not set up to answer email
letters, comments or requests for specific information. To reach this
MIT server, send email:
To: Clinton-Info@Campaign92.Org
Subject: Help
The server works by reading the subject line of the incoming message and
taking whatever action that line calls for. If you want to sign up to
automatically receive press releases, then your subject line would begin
with the word RECEIVE. You can then specify what kind of information
you are interested in receiving. The categories of information are:
ECONOMY
Get releases related to the economy such as budget
news, technology policy review, etc.
FOREIGN
Get releases related to foreign policy such as
statements on Bosnian airdrop, Haitian refugee status,
etc.
HEALTH Get releases related to health care policy, without
receiving any other social issues. Use this instead
of social.
SOCIAL
Get releases related to social issues like National
Service (Student Loan) program, abortion, welfare
reform, etc.
SPEECHES
All speeches made by the President and important
speeches made by other Administration officials.
NEWS
Transcripts of press conferences released by the White
House Communications office, as well as the
President's remarks in photo ops and other Q&A
sessions.
ALL All of the above
So, if you wanted to sign up to get releases related to the economy
your email message would look like this:
To: Clinton-Info@Campaign92.Org
Subject: RECEIVE ECONOMY
When you send a signup message to the clinton-info server, it sends you
back a status message letting you know what distribution streams you are
signed up for. If you ever want to check on what groups you are signed
up for send the following message:
To: Clinton-Info@Campaign92.Org
Subject: STATUS
*****You can stop receiving email releases by sending a REMOVE message
to the clinton-info server. The word REMOVE would be followed by
whatever distribution stream you wanted to drop. If you wanted to stop
receiving message about the ECONOMY then your mail would look like this:
To: Clinton-Info@Campaign92.Org
Subject: REMOVE ECONOMY
You could substitute SOCIAL, FOREIGN, HEALTH, SPEECHES, NEWS or ALL for
ECONOMY in the above message and you would be dropped from that
distribution list. If you send the subject line REMOVE ALL, then you
will be taken off the email distribution system all together and will
not receive further releases of any kind.
You can also ask for help from the automated server. Send an email
query as follows:
To: Clinton-Info@Campaign92.Org
Subject: HELP
The server will respond by sending you a detailed form that will guide
you through the process of signing up for the various distribution
streams. As you will quickly discover, there is a automatic form
processing interface that parallel the quick and easy subject line
commands discussed here. More detailed help is available by sending an
email query as follows:
To: Clinton-Info@Campaign92.Org
Subject: Please Help!
Finally, if you want to search and retrieve documents, but you do not
have access to the retrieval methods discussed in section II, you can do
this via email through the MIT server. You can obtain the WAIS query
form by sending an email query as follows:
To: Clinton-Info@Campaign92.Org
Subject: WAIS
Once you have identified the documents that you want, be careful not
to request them all at once, because you may be sent a message
containing all the documents and this message may be too big for some
mail delivery systems between the email server and you.

III. HOW DO I SEND EMAIL TO THE WHITE HOUSE?
We are pleased to introduce this new form of communication with the
White House for the first time in history. As we work to reinvent
government and streamline our processes, this electronic mail project
will help put us on the leading edge of progress. Please remember,
though, this project is still very much under construction. The Office
of Correspondence is currently working on defining what this system
will do, as well as addressing equipment and staffing needs.
When you send a message to the White House you will receive an immediate
acknowledgment that your message has been received. This is the only
electronic response you will receive at this stage of development; if
you include your street address in your message, you may receive a
response by U.S. Mail. Please be assured that every electronic mail
message received is read and analyzed by staff. Your concerns, your
praise, your suggestions, and your ideas are carefully recorded and
reported to the President and Vice President weekly.
You can send email to the following addresses:
Internet Direct: President@WhiteHouse.GOV
Vice.President@WhiteHouse.GOV
IV. HOW DO I SEND EMAIL TO CONGRESS?
The House and the Senate are conducting electronic communications
projects. You can access Congressional information via the protocols
listed below. For additional information, please contact the offices of

2. 1. Congress by Mail
Congressfolk have their offices in one of several buildings. However,
you need not know their address to send them snail mail. Letters to your
Representative can be addressed:
The Honorable [name]
House of Representatives
Washington, DC 20515-0001
Similarly, letters to your Senators can simply be addressed:
The Honorable [name]
United States Senate
Washington DC 20510-0001
(Note: the listing in the "Congress by Phone and Fax" section
lists each Senator's office building.)
Some online services outside of Internet offer various ways to reach out
and touch someone. CompuServe users, for example, can send a
"CongressGram" to any Congressperson (or the President or VP) via
CompuServe MAIL. This service prints, addresses, and mails your letter
for $1 (in addition to online charges). CIS has the added advantage of
listing the various committees, subcommittees,and sub-subcommittees to
which each Congressperson belongs.

2. 3. ISIS and LEGIS:
Gateway to Congressional Email and more (source: LKK)
The Power of Isis
by Joe Abernathy
(Village Voice, January 12, 1993)
Technicians in Washington are turning on the juice to a new suite of
communication technologies that could strengthen the ties between the
people and their representatives in the incoming Congress. But --
surprise! -- the system, called ISIS (for Integrated Systems and
Information Services), has been designed only to extend the power and
reach of those in Washington -- even though it could just as easily
empower the public. With this in mind, a group of electronic activists
are trying to set things straight.
"This is out there. You paid for it. Shouldn't you have access?" asks
James P. Love, director of Ralph Nader's Taxpayer Assets Project. TAP
has been lobbying for greater access to the Congress for some time, in
the hope that average citizens could become desktop lobbyists.
ISIS, which gets hooked up this month, will allow any lawmaker who
requests it to have electronic mail access to the global Internet
computer network and all of the so-called X.400 e-mail gateways, which
include AT&T Mail, MCI Mail and other business-oriented systems. All
told, ISIS will allow Congress to reach out to nearly every significant
business leader, researcher, and educator in the free world-tens of
millions of people. Yet the plan omits one key detail: Publishing a
directory of electronic mail addresses so that you can write to
*them*.
"A lot of congressmen are not too keen on that," says Love. "Several
members have Internet access right now, but it doesn't do much good
[for citizens] unless you have their address, and they consider that
private." The reason Congress wants to retain that privacy is obvious:
legislators already consider themselves besieged by numerous interest
groups - the last thing they want is to give the electorate yet another
medium for getting in touch with them..
In addtion to ISIS, there's another important congressional on-line
technology that is off-limits to the public although developed with
public funding. Known as LEGIS, this databank is the command
information center for most of the work done in the Congress. It
contains the full text and synopses of bills before the House and
Senate, information on all foreign treaties, background investigations
on pending administration appointees, all new government research
papers, a breakdown on how members voted on various topics, and the
Congressional record.
LEGIS was paid for by the taxpayers, it contains Information that is
part of the public record - although the way things stand now, you
would have to physically be in Washington to examine most of the
material - and TAP things that you ought to be able to tap in. Noting
that LEGIS already serves 30,000 people, administrators of the system
say there's no reason, technologically or legally, why it couldn't
serve the public at the marginal cost of laying down a few telephone
lines.
"A couple of guys in the House just have to say it's done, and it's
done," Love notes. "That information system should be available to
every member of the public. It's simple; it's there; it's ready."
Like nearly every area of computer technology, on-line access to the
government raises new twists on thorny old constitutional issues.
Experts contend that such direct access -- along with ideas such as
Ross Perot's electronic town hall -- would disproportionately empower a
citizen elite that has access to personal computers.
So at Love's urging, the Office of Technology Assessment - an
investigative arm of Congress -- has begun studying the whole issue of
how lawmakers can best embrace electronic democracy. The fear, of
course, it that the months and years the OTA spends exploring the
minutaiae of the issue could give Congress a further excuse to delay
granting the public access to the system.
There are a number of things you can do to speed along this process.
The first is to contact your local congress member and express a desire
for his or her office to use the ISIS system and electronic mail.
To request that the public be granted access to the LEGIS system, you
should send letters to two gentlemen:
The Honorable Charlie Rose, House of Representatives Washington, DC 20515
The Honorable Wendell Ford, United States Senate Washington, DC 20510
The same addresses will work, respectively, for your local
representative and senator. To phone anyone in the Congress, dial
202-225-3121. [Or 202-224-3121 -- ed]
[ Note: the Electronic Frontier Foundation is active in this
area. The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) FTP site has
a lot of policy related papers, net 'zines, and net info:

2. 3a. More on LEGIS (source: ML)
The Bill Status Office can tell you within seconds the latest action on
any federal legislation. Every bill and resolution for the current
session as well as all House and Senate legislation dating back to 1975
are contained in LEGIS, a computerized database. When you call, it is
best to give a key word or phrase (i.e., product liability, hazardous
waste) which will help the congressional aides search LEGIS. This office
can provide such detailed information as:
- Have any bills been introduced covering a given topic?
- Who is the sponsor of the bill?
- How many cosponsors are there?
- When was it introduced?
- Which committees have the bills been referred to?
- Have any hearings been held?
- Has there been any floor action?
- Has a similar bill been introduced in the other chamber?
- Has there been any action on the other side of the Hill?
- Have the House and Senate agreed to a compromise bill?
- Has the bill been sent to the White House?
- Has the President signed or vetoed the bill?
- What is the PL (public law) number?
Telephone assistance is free, and printouts from LEGIS are available for
$.20 per page but must be picked up at the Bill Status Office. However, by
making arrangements with your Representative's or Senator's office, you
can avoid this nominal charge and also have the printout mailed to your
home or office. Contact: LEGIS, Office of Legislative Information, House
Office Building Annex 2, 2nd & D Streets, SW, Room 696, Washington, D.C.
20515; 202-225-1772.

2. 4. Congress by Email
The "White House Electronic Publications and Public Access Email" FAQ,
above, lists some information under the section "How Do I Send Email to
Congress?"
The better way is to send an email message asking for the latest
information on the Constituent Electronic Mail System:
"To obtain a list of the Members of the U.S. House of Representatives who
are currently participating in the Constituent EMail Service, send an
Internet mail message to congress@hr.house.gov or peruse our gopher
service at gopher.house.gov in the House EMail Addresses category."
Sending an email message returns a message like this:
Date: Mon, 27 Jun 1994 21:33:21 -0500 (EST)
From: CONGRESS@HR.HOUSE.GOV
Subject: Welcome to the Constituent Electronic Mail System
UNITED STATES HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
CONSTITUENT ELECTRONIC MAIL SYSTEM
We welcome your inquiry to the House of Representatives
Constituent Electronic Mail System. Currently, thirtyfive Members of
the U.S. House of Representatives have been assigned public electronic
mailboxes that may be accessed by their constituents. The nature and
character of the incoming electronic mail has demonstrated that this
capability will be an invaluable source of information on constituent
opinion. We are now in the process of expanding the project to other
Members of Congress, as technical, budgetary and staffing constraints
allow.
A number of House committees have also been assigned public
electronic mailboxes. The names and electronic mailbox addresses of
these committees are listed below after the information about
participating Representatives.
Please review the list of participating Representatives below,
and if the Congressional District in which you reside is listed, follow
the instructions below to begin communicating by electronic mail with
your Representative. If your Representative is not yet on-line, please
be patient.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONSTITUENTS
The list above includes the electronic mail addresses of members
who are participating in the program. However, if your Representative
is taking part in the project, we request that you send a letter or
postcard by U.S. Mail to that Representative at the address listed above
with your name and internet address, followed by your postal
(geographical) address. The primary goal of this program is to allow
Members to better serve their CONSTITUENTS, and this postal contact is
the only sure method currently available of verifying that a user is a
resident of a particular congressional district.
In addition, constituents who communicate with their
Representative by electronic mail should be aware that Members will
sometimes respond to their messages by way of the U.S. Postal Service.
This method of reply will help to ensure confidentiality, a concern
that is of upmost importance to the House of Representatives.

COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS
You can send comments about our service to the Constituent
Electronic Mail System Comment mailbox, at

We will make every effort to integrate suggestions into
forthcoming updates of our system. Please note, that the intended
purpose of this mailbox is to support public inquiry about the
House Constituent Electronic Mail System. Messages intended for
Members of Congress should be sent directly to the appropriate
Member of Congress at their electronic mail or postal address.
UPDATES AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
From time to time, you may want to send another e-mail message
to CONGRESS@HR.HOUSE.GOV to see the most recent version of the list of
Members and Committees using Constituent Electronic Mail. The
information is also available on the U.S. House of Representatives'
Gopher server at
GOPHER.HOUSE.GOV
in the folder Congressional Information.
To learn more about information available electronically from the
House, send an e-mail message to
HOUSEHLP@HR.HOUSE.GOV
Thank you again for contacting the House of Representatives'
Constituent Electronic Mail System. We are excited about the
possibilities that e-mail has to offer, and will be working hard to
bring more Members on-line and to expand our services.
This message will be updated as necessary.

2. 5. Experimental Email/Fax Server (source: ETC)
A directory of the White House and Cabinet addresses, and phone
and FAX numbers for members of the 103d Congress are available by
anonymous FTP at nifty.andrew.cmu.edu (/pub/QRD/qrd/info/GOVT/
directory)
This will be quite useful considering...

#Date: 5 Aug 1993 20:36:16 -0500
"In case you haven't heard, there is an experimental email - fax server on
the internet. It doesn't reach many places, but one place it does reach
is the DC area code, and so it can be used to send faxes to congress for
free! Send email to:
remote-printer.Senator_Blah@fax-number.tpc.int
where Senator_Blah will show up as Senator Blah on the cover page
and fax number is the number backwards separated by dots (include area
code). ie it will end like 2.0.2.1.tpc.int for the 202 (DC) area code.
The message should also be in Mime format. If you do it wrong you should
get a message back that includes a FAQ."

2. 6. The Senate via gopher & WWW ftp (source: IW)
The Senate now has a gopher site (gopher.senate.gov), as well as a
WorldWideWeb ftp site (URL:ftp://ftp.senate.gov), which contain general
Senate info. Following the lead of the House, individual Senators are
now entering the world of direct electronic access.
Sens. Kennedy (MA) and Stevens (AK) were "the first to place information
in the site," sez Internet World. Still no word on when the Senate will
join the House in assigning email addresses, however.

Introduction
------------
The Beltway FAQ lists information on how to reach out and touch, by
various means, your Federal representatives -- the President, the Vice
President, the Congress, and the Cabinet -- as well as selected Federal
agencies. It is intended for the politically active, and for those who
wish to obtain information on budgetary and legislative matters from and
about the Federal government.
This FAQ is a compendium of postings from various sources both printed
and electronic; source credits are listed at the end. It does not tell
you how to electronically access _every_ Federal library, database, or
BBS, but the source list, and a listing of some useful FAQs at the end
of this tome, will point you in the right direction.
Additions, corrections, and contributions will be warmly welcomed by the
author. Please send to Paul Havemann (paul@hsh.com).

1. 2. The White House by Email (The Official WH Email FAQ)
During Campaign '92, the Clinton Campaign made widespread use of
electronic media. A staffer named Jock Gill offered the use of his
CompuServe account to encourage the public to send comments to the
campaign. The account racked up hundreds of messages per day, often
resulting in bounced messages. The campaign organizations of the various
presidential candidates used Internet accounts to disseminate news
releases to certain Usenet news groups -- a practice the Clinton
Administration continues to this day.

Folks without WAIS clients or gophers that act as WAIS
clients may telnet to sunsite.unc.edu and login as swais
to access this information via WAIS.
1.b GOPHER is a distributed menu system for information access on the
Internet developed at the University of Minnesota. gophers are
client-server implementations and various gopher clients are
available for nearly any computing platform. You may now use
gopher clients to access the White House Papers and other
political information on SunSITE.unc.edu's new gopher server.
You may also add links from your local gopher server to
SunSITE for access to the White House Papers.
For gopher server keepers and adventurous clients to access
SunSITE you need only know that we use the standard gopher
port 70 and that our internet address is SunSITE.unc.edu
(152.2.22.81). Point there and you'll see the references to
the Politics areas.
For folks without gopher clients can telnet to sunsite.unc.edu
to try out gopher access. You need to have access to internet
telnet and:
telnet sunsite.unc.edu
login: gopher
The rest is very straight forward. Browsing options end with a
directory mark (/), searching options end with an question mark
(?).
There's plenty of on-line help available.
2. No special instructions.
3. The CLINTON@MARIST log files which contain all the official
administration releases distributed through the MIT servers
are available via anonymous FTP. These logs contain in
addition to the official releases, the posts that comprise the
ongoing discussion conducted by the list subscribers.
To obtain the logs:
FTP MARISTB.MARIST.EDU - the logs are in the CLINTON directory
and are named CLINTON LOG9208 thru CLINTON LOGyymm where yymm
stands for the current year and month. Problems should be
directed to my attention: URLS@MARISTC.BITNET or
URLS@VM.MARIST.EDU.
Posted by Lee Sakkas - owner, CLINTON@MARIST
4. Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility is
providing all Clinton documents on technology and privacy
at the CPSR Internet Library, available via
FTP/WAIS/Gopher at cpsr.org /cpsr/clinton (and in other
folders as relevant). For email access, send a message
with the word "help" at the 1st line of text to
listserv@cpsr.org.
5. The FedWorld Computer System, operated by the National Technical
Information Service, archives White House papers in a
traditional BBS type file library. Connect to FedWorld by
calling (703) 321-8020. No parity, eight data bits and one stop
bit (N-8-1). FedWorld accommodates baud speeds of up to 9,600.
It is also possible to Telnet to FedWorld at FedWorld.doc.gov.
White House papers are located in the W-House library of files.
To access this library from the main FedWorld menu,
enter <f s w-house>. Files are named with the first four digits
being the release month and day (e.g. 0323XXX.txt). Some
standard abbreviations after the date include:
rem - Remarks by the President
pc - Press Conference transcript
pr - Press Release
AM - AM Press Briefing
PM - PM Press Briefing
sch - The President's public schedule
spch- Text of major speeches.
These files are saved in ASCII format. Files can be viewed
online by requesting to download a file and then selecting
(L)ist as the download protocol. This will display the file a
screen at a time. White House papers are kept in the above
format for up to two months. Papers more than two months old
are compressed using Pkzip into a single file that contains all
of the files for that month (e.g. 0193.zip contains all papers
released during January 1993). In addition to White Documents,
FedWorld also provides a gateway to more than 100 government
funded BBSs and computer systems.
6. Texas A&M University GOPHER Server makes available White House
press releases and other documents. This archive includes
information from 1992 until the present time and is updated
as new documents are released. Gopher users can reach the
Texas A&M server by choosing it from their local server's list
of other gophers, or by pointing their gopher clients to
GOPHER.TAMU.EDU.
After connecting to the A&M server, take the following path to
reach the White House menus:
"Browse Information by Subject" -->
"Political Science" -->
"Information from the White House"
Gopher maintainers and other intrepid souls are welcome to point
directly to the A&M White House archive. The server is
GOPHER.TAMU.EDU and the path is 11/.dir/president.dir.
II. HOW DO I SIGN UP FOR ELECTRONIC PUBLICATIONS BY THE WHITE HOUSE?
The White House Communications office is distributing press releases
over an experimental system developed during the campaign at the MIT
Artificial Intelligence Laboratory.
You can obtain copies of all the press releases from a wide variety of
on-line services or discussion groups devoted to either national
politics in general or President Clinton in particular. These are
listed in sections I and II.
Section IIc explains how you can sign up to receive press releases
directly from the experimental MIT system by using an automated email
server. The present system was not designed to handle high levels of
message traffic. A more powerful system will become available in due
course, and in the meantime, it would be appreciated if you used this
service sparingly. One appropriate current use is secondary
redistribution and archiving. If you use it, you will be carried forward
when the more powerful system that replaces it.

IIb. NOTES ON WIDELY AVAILABLE SOURCES
2. CompuServe's White House Forum (GO WHITEHOUSE) is devoted to
discussion of the Clinton administration's policies and
activities. The forum's library consists of news releases and
twice daily media briefings from the White House Office of Media
Affairs. CompuServe members can exchange information and
opinions with each other in the 17 sections in the forum's
message area. The message board spans a broad range of topics,
including international and United Nations activities, defense,
health care, the economy and the deficit, housing and
urban development, the environment, and education and national
service.
3. On America Online, the posts are sent to the White House Forum,
located in the News & Finance Department of the service or
accessible via keywords: "white house" or "clinton". The White
House Forum on America Online contains the press releases from
the White House, divided into the categories "Appointments",
"Budget", "Congress", "Education", "Economy", "Foreign Policy",
"Health Care", "Housing", "Labor", "Law and Order", "Meetings &
Speeches", "Proclamations", "Technology", and "Vice President".
The area features a message board so you can discuss the
releases with other AOL members, a searchable database for easy
retrieval of releases that interest you, a Library for longer
releases from the White House, and a library that members can
upload files of interest for other members.
4. MCI Mail users access daily information on the administration's
programs provided by the White House through MCI Mail bulletin
boards. The available boards are: WHITE HOUSE ECONOMIC, WHITE
HOUSE FOREIGN, WHITE HOUSE SOCIAL, WHITE HOUSE SPEECHES and
WHITE HOUSE NEWS. A listing of these boards can also be
obtained by simply typing VIEW WHITE HOUSE at the COMMAND
prompt.
5. On The Meta Network, material is posted in the White house
conference and is accessible via keywords (matching on document
titles and subject categories) as well as full text search.
Discussions on specific initiatives take place in special
interest forums, e.g. health, technology, and reinventing
government.
9. GEnie's White House RoundTable has been established to
distribute and discuss the official press releases and files
relating to the White House and the Clinton Administration. The
files library holds all of the press releases on the official
mailing list, and the Bulletin Board has Categories set up with
topics relating to all aspects of the Administration and
Executive Branch of government. Letters to the White House can
be entered easily online with a menu option on the WHITEHOUSE
page.
10. CompuServe's Democratic Forum (GO DEMOCRATS) is the Democratic
Party's online information service covering the activities of
the Clinton administration. The sysops of the Democratic Forum
work for the Democratic National Committee, and are directly
involved in managing the forum and responding to online
questions. The Democratic Forum provides access to documents
from the White House Office of Media Affairs, with vigorous
discussion and debate in the message sections about the impact
of the Clinton Administration's policies and proposals. The
Democratic Forum also holds a regular weekly online conference
with special guests on current topics.
IIc. DIRECT EMAIL DISTRIBUTION
If you don't have access to the these accounts or if you would prefer to
receive the releases via email, then this section details how to
sign up for this service. The server is not set up to answer email
letters, comments or requests for specific information. To reach this
MIT server, send email:
To: Clinton-Info@Campaign92.Org
Subject: Help
The server works by reading the subject line of the incoming message and
taking whatever action that line calls for. If you want to sign up to
automatically receive press releases, then your subject line would begin
with the word RECEIVE. You can then specify what kind of information
you are interested in receiving. The categories of information are:
ECONOMY
Get releases related to the economy such as budget
news, technology policy review, etc.
FOREIGN
Get releases related to foreign policy such as
statements on Bosnian airdrop, Haitian refugee status,
etc.
HEALTH Get releases related to health care policy, without
receiving any other social issues. Use this instead
of social.
SOCIAL
Get releases related to social issues like National
Service (Student Loan) program, abortion, welfare
reform, etc.
SPEECHES
All speeches made by the President and important
speeches made by other Administration officials.
NEWS
Transcripts of press conferences released by the White
House Communications office, as well as the
President's remarks in photo ops and other Q&A
sessions.
ALL All of the above
So, if you wanted to sign up to get releases related to the economy
your email message would look like this:
To: Clinton-Info@Campaign92.Org
Subject: RECEIVE ECONOMY
When you send a signup message to the clinton-info server, it sends you
back a status message letting you know what distribution streams you are
signed up for. If you ever want to check on what groups you are signed
up for send the following message:
To: Clinton-Info@Campaign92.Org
Subject: STATUS
*****You can stop receiving email releases by sending a REMOVE message
to the clinton-info server. The word REMOVE would be followed by
whatever distribution stream you wanted to drop. If you wanted to stop
receiving message about the ECONOMY then your mail would look like this:
To: Clinton-Info@Campaign92.Org
Subject: REMOVE ECONOMY
You could substitute SOCIAL, FOREIGN, HEALTH, SPEECHES, NEWS or ALL for
ECONOMY in the above message and you would be dropped from that
distribution list. If you send the subject line REMOVE ALL, then you
will be taken off the email distribution system all together and will
not receive further releases of any kind.
You can also ask for help from the automated server. Send an email
query as follows:
To: Clinton-Info@Campaign92.Org
Subject: HELP
The server will respond by sending you a detailed form that will guide
you through the process of signing up for the various distribution
streams. As you will quickly discover, there is a automatic form
processing interface that parallel the quick and easy subject line
commands discussed here. More detailed help is available by sending an
email query as follows:
To: Clinton-Info@Campaign92.Org
Subject: Please Help!
Finally, if you want to search and retrieve documents, but you do not
have access to the retrieval methods discussed in section II, you can do
this via email through the MIT server. You can obtain the WAIS query
form by sending an email query as follows:
To: Clinton-Info@Campaign92.Org
Subject: WAIS
Once you have identified the documents that you want, be careful not
to request them all at once, because you may be sent a message
containing all the documents and this message may be too big for some
mail delivery systems between the email server and you.

III. HOW DO I SEND EMAIL TO THE WHITE HOUSE?
We are pleased to introduce this new form of communication with the
White House for the first time in history. As we work to reinvent
government and streamline our processes, this electronic mail project
will help put us on the leading edge of progress. Please remember,
though, this project is still very much under construction. The Office
of Correspondence is currently working on defining what this system
will do, as well as addressing equipment and staffing needs.
When you send a message to the White House you will receive an immediate
acknowledgment that your message has been received. This is the only
electronic response you will receive at this stage of development; if
you include your street address in your message, you may receive a
response by U.S. Mail. Please be assured that every electronic mail
message received is read and analyzed by staff. Your concerns, your
praise, your suggestions, and your ideas are carefully recorded and
reported to the President and Vice President weekly.
You can send email to the following addresses:
Internet Direct: President@WhiteHouse.GOV
Vice.President@WhiteHouse.GOV
IV. HOW DO I SEND EMAIL TO CONGRESS?
The House and the Senate are conducting electronic communications
projects. You can access Congressional information via the protocols
listed below. For additional information, please contact the offices of
your Representative or Senators.

2. 1. Congress by Mail
Congressfolk have their offices in one of several buildings. However,
you need not know their address to send them snail mail. Letters to your
Representative can be addressed:
The Honorable [name]
House of Representatives
Washington, DC 20515-0001
Similarly, letters to your Senators can simply be addressed:
The Honorable [name]
United States Senate
Washington DC 20510-0001
(Note: the listing in the "Congress by Phone and Fax" section
lists each Senator's office building.)
Some online services outside of Internet offer various ways to reach out
and touch someone. CompuServe users, for example, can send a
"CongressGram" to any Congressperson (or the President or VP) via
CompuServe MAIL. This service prints, addresses, and mails your letter
for $1 (in addition to online charges). CIS has the added advantage of
listing the various committees, subcommittees,and sub-subcommittees to
which each Congressperson belongs.

2. 3. ISIS and LEGIS:
Gateway to Congressional Email and more (source: LKK)
The Power of Isis
by Joe Abernathy
(Village Voice, January 12, 1993)
Technicians in Washington are turning on the juice to a new suite of
communication technologies that could strengthen the ties between the
people and their representatives in the incoming Congress. But --
surprise! -- the system, called ISIS (for Integrated Systems and
Information Services), has been designed only to extend the power and
reach of those in Washington -- even though it could just as easily
empower the public. With this in mind, a group of electronic activists
are trying to set things straight.
"This is out there. You paid for it. Shouldn't you have access?" asks
James P. Love, director of Ralph Nader's Taxpayer Assets Project. TAP
has been lobbying for greater access to the Congress for some time, in
the hope that average citizens could become desktop lobbyists.
ISIS, which gets hooked up this month, will allow any lawmaker who
requests it to have electronic mail access to the global Internet
computer network and all of the so-called X.400 e-mail gateways, which
include AT&T Mail, MCI Mail and other business-oriented systems. All
told, ISIS will allow Congress to reach out to nearly every significant
business leader, researcher, and educator in the free world-tens of
millions of people. Yet the plan omits one key detail: Publishing a
directory of electronic mail addresses so that you can write to
*them*.
"A lot of congressmen are not too keen on that," says Love. "Several
members have Internet access right now, but it doesn't do much good
[for citizens] unless you have their address, and they consider that
private." The reason Congress wants to retain that privacy is obvious:
legislators already consider themselves besieged by numerous interest
groups - the last thing they want is to give the electorate yet another
medium for getting in touch with them..
In addtion to ISIS, there's another important congressional on-line
technology that is off-limits to the public although developed with
public funding. Known as LEGIS, this databank is the command
information center for most of the work done in the Congress. It
contains the full text and synopses of bills before the House and
Senate, information on all foreign treaties, background investigations
on pending administration appointees, all new government research
papers, a breakdown on how members voted on various topics, and the
Congressional record.
LEGIS was paid for by the taxpayers, it contains Information that is
part of the public record - although the way things stand now, you
would have to physically be in Washington to examine most of the
material - and TAP things that you ought to be able to tap in. Noting
that LEGIS already serves 30,000 people, administrators of the system
say there's no reason, technologically or legally, why it couldn't
serve the public at the marginal cost of laying down a few telephone
lines.
"A couple of guys in the House just have to say it's done, and it's
done," Love notes. "That information system should be available to
every member of the public. It's simple; it's there; it's ready."
Like nearly every area of computer technology, on-line access to the
government raises new twists on thorny old constitutional issues.
Experts contend that such direct access -- along with ideas such as
Ross Perot's electronic town hall -- would disproportionately empower a
citizen elite that has access to personal computers.
So at Love's urging, the Office of Technology Assessment - an
investigative arm of Congress -- has begun studying the whole issue of
how lawmakers can best embrace electronic democracy. The fear, of
course, it that the months and years the OTA spends exploring the
minutaiae of the issue could give Congress a further excuse to delay
granting the public access to the system.
There are a number of things you can do to speed along this process.
The first is to contact your local congress member and express a desire
for his or her office to use the ISIS system and electronic mail.
To request that the public be granted access to the LEGIS system, you
should send letters to two gentlemen:
The Honorable Charlie Rose, House of Representatives Washington, DC 20515
The Honorable Wendell Ford, United States Senate Washington, DC 20510
The same addresses will work, respectively, for your local
representative and senator. To phone anyone in the Congress, dial
202-225-3121. [Or 202-224-3121 -- ed]
[ Note: the Electronic Frontier Foundation is active in this
area. The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) FTP site has
a lot of policy related papers, net 'zines, and net info:

2. 3a. More on LEGIS (source: ML)
The Bill Status Office can tell you within seconds the latest action on
any federal legislation. Every bill and resolution for the current
session as well as all House and Senate legislation dating back to 1975
are contained in LEGIS, a computerized database. When you call, it is
best to give a key word or phrase (i.e., product liability, hazardous
waste) which will help the congressional aides search LEGIS. This office
can provide such detailed information as:
- Have any bills been introduced covering a given topic?
- Who is the sponsor of the bill?
- How many cosponsors are there?
- When was it introduced?
- Which committees have the bills been referred to?
- Have any hearings been held?
- Has there been any floor action?
- Has a similar bill been introduced in the other chamber?
- Has there been any action on the other side of the Hill?
- Have the House and Senate agreed to a compromise bill?
- Has the bill been sent to the White House?
- Has the President signed or vetoed the bill?
- What is the PL (public law) number?
Telephone assistance is free, and printouts from LEGIS are available for
$.20 per page but must be picked up at the Bill Status Office. However, by
making arrangements with your Representative's or Senator's office, you
can avoid this nominal charge and also have the printout mailed to your
home or office. Contact: LEGIS, Office of Legislative Information, House
Office Building Annex 2, 2nd & D Streets, SW, Room 696, Washington, D.C.

2. 4. Congress by Email
The "White House Electronic Publications and Public Access Email" FAQ,
above, lists some information under the section "How Do I Send Email to
Congress?"
The better way is to send an email message asking for the latest
information on the Constituent Electronic Mail System:
"To obtain a list of the Members of the U.S. House of Representatives who
are currently participating in the Constituent EMail Service, send an
Internet mail message to congress@hr.house.gov or peruse our gopher
service at gopher.house.gov in the House EMail Addresses category."
Sending an email message returns a message like this:
Date: Mon, 27 Jun 1994 21:33:21 -0500 (EST)
From: CONGRESS@HR.HOUSE.GOV
Subject: Welcome to the Constituent Electronic Mail System
UNITED STATES HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
CONSTITUENT ELECTRONIC MAIL SYSTEM
We welcome your inquiry to the House of Representatives
Constituent Electronic Mail System. Currently, thirtyfive Members of
the U.S. House of Representatives have been assigned public electronic
mailboxes that may be accessed by their constituents. The nature and
character of the incoming electronic mail has demonstrated that this
capability will be an invaluable source of information on constituent
opinion. We are now in the process of expanding the project to other
Members of Congress, as technical, budgetary and staffing constraints
allow.
A number of House committees have also been assigned public
electronic mailboxes. The names and electronic mailbox addresses of
these committees are listed below after the information about
participating Representatives.
Please review the list of participating Representatives below,
and if the Congressional District in which you reside is listed, follow
the instructions below to begin communicating by electronic mail with
your Representative. If your Representative is not yet on-line, please
be patient.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONSTITUENTS
The list above includes the electronic mail addresses of members
who are participating in the program. However, if your Representative
is taking part in the project, we request that you send a letter or
postcard by U.S. Mail to that Representative at the address listed above
with your name and internet address, followed by your postal
(geographical) address. The primary goal of this program is to allow
Members to better serve their CONSTITUENTS, and this postal contact is
the only sure method currently available of verifying that a user is a
resident of a particular congressional district.
In addition, constituents who communicate with their
Representative by electronic mail should be aware that Members will
sometimes respond to their messages by way of the U.S. Postal Service.
This method of reply will help to ensure confidentiality, a concern
that is of upmost importance to the House of Representatives.

"In case you haven't heard, there is an experimental email - fax server on
the internet. It doesn't reach many places, but one place it does reach
is the DC area code, and so it can be used to send faxes to congress for
free! Send email to:
remote-printer.Senator_Blah@fax-number.tpc.int
where Senator_Blah will show up as Senator Blah on the cover page
and fax number is the number backwards separated by dots (include area
