Doesn't the Labor Dept. already have this type of response team?  We 
should check with them to see what the existing situation is.

Subject: Fast Track follow up

The VP called Rep. Pomeroy last week to thank him for his support of Fast 
Track.  In their conversation, Pomeroy said that he wanted "to work with 
us on a higher profile effort for the economically depressed."  I followed 
up with Pomeroy at the Fast Track thank you reception.  He thinks that the 
federal government should have an organization similar to FEMA that 
assists economically depressed areas (for instance, when a factory closes, 
Pomeroy would like to see a federal response team that helps displaced w
orkers get back on their feet).  

The VP said that he would like to bring this up with the POTUS at his next 
lunch meeting.  I will give you a bullet for the next lunch memo.

Thanks, DT
