WILLIAM PROXMIRE. Document signed: "Bill Proxmire", 22p, 5¾x9. Text of amendment to the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, requiring financial institutions to maintain additional records of potential use in criminal and tax investigations, as enacted by Congress 1970 October 26. Signed on cover. PROXMIRE (1915-2005), a Democrat, represented Wisconsin in the U.S. Senate (1957-1989). Proxmire chaired the Senate's Banking Committee for 8 years. Beginning in 1975, he announced annual "Golden Fleece" awards for the biggest waste of taxpayers' money. Examples included a $27,000 study of why inmates want to escape from prison and a $6,000, 17-page guide to consumers on how to buy Worcestershire Sauce. Proxmire has said that his favorite "Golden Fleece" was a grant to determine whether sunfish were more aggressive after consuming tequila or gin. Staple holes and ½-inch tear from staple removal at top margin of cover. Mounting tape remnants on back cover. Otherwise, fine condition.
