<h2> <span class="mw-headline" id="Wining_and_dining_with_Norquist">Wining and dining with Norquist</span></h2>

<p>While corporate funding for ATR may have been volatile, Norquist had

success on another front. In a letter to invitation to PM’s

Washington-based Legislative Council, Ms Beverley McKittrick, Norquist

reported that during 1997, 1997 and 1998 a series of ATR hosted dinner

discussions on tax issues had all been sold out. The earlier dinners had

featured speakers such as former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich,

Congressman John Kasich and Congressman Bill Thomas.

Norquist offered McKittrick a subscription to the 1999 series of six

dinners – with Congressmen Armey, Chairman Archer and the Speaker of the

House Denny Hastert amongst the invited speakers – “for a modest

contribution of $10,000”.

“Only 24 business leaders will be in attendance,” Norquist assured

McKittrick. The series of dinners, Norquist wrote, were chaired by Bill

Roesing of Seagram & Sons and co-chaired by Chuck Crowders of Lucent

Technologies.<a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://legacy.library.ucsf.edu/tid/jqo83c00">[9]</a>

By 1999 PM’s contribution to ATR had grown to $160,000. <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://tobaccodocuments.org/pm/2065281658-1661.html">[10]</a> The Tobacco Institute contributed another $10,000 in 1999. <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://tobaccodocuments.org/lor/86599571-9649.html">[11]</a>

In March 1999, Norquist was active lobbying members of the Senate

Budget Committee in defence of the tobacco industry. “The Tobacco

industry is a lawful industry subject to an excessive tax burden,

already 41 cents per packet to state governments for re-imbursement of

smoking related illness and over a dollar per pack taxes (depending on

the state, some taxes are much higher0. That is already one-third tax

burden on a legal product. Furthermore they employ thousands of

Americans, which educates, feeds and clothes families across this

nation”, Norquist wrote. <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://legacy.library.ucsf.edu/tid/ifo60d00">[12]</a>

The following week ATR was claiming to legislators that a Senate

Budget resolution seeking to remove the tax-deductibility of payments

made by the tobacco industry to settle the legal actions taken against

it by State Attorney General’s would breach ATR’s Taxpayer Protection

Pledge. The second paragraph of the pledge, ATR said, required

supporters to “oppose any further reduction or elimination of deductions

and credits, unless matched dollar for dollar further reducing tax

rates”.<a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://legacy.library.ucsf.edu/tid/mvi02d00">[13]</a>

ATR’s role also extended to facilitating the introduction of one Republican political aspirant to RJR. “<a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Bethany_Noble" title="Bethany Noble">Bethany Noble</a>

from Americans for Tax Reform will be bringing Kevin Kellems

(republican candidate to oppose Baron Hill in Ind. 9) by for a brief

visit at 3.00 today. Kellems is a tobacco farmer, and has a pretty fair

shot at unseating Hill,” Donald Foreman, an RJR staffer, wrote in an

e-mail to his colleagues.

There was potential for embarrassment however, as RJR had donated

$500 to Hill. Despite this, Foreman suggested “this is a race we may

want to keep an eye on and see how it look [sic] in a few months”. <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://legacy.library.ucsf.edu/tid/fxj82a00">[14]</a>

A 1999 RJR Corporate Affairs plan identified one of the key

strategies as being to “mobilize key third party groups (such as

Americans for Tax reform, CART, NSA and others) to ensure that RJR’s

message is effectively communicated, reinforced and understood by key

opinion leaders”.

“We seek forums, in the media or with third parties who help us fight

onerous legislation/regulation, to balance hyperbolic accusations of

well financed critics whose credibility with key audiences is greater

than hours”, the document stated. <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://legacy.library.ucsf.edu/tid/mum50d00">[15]</a></p><p>
