December 29, 1975 State Representative David E. Clarenbach 112 North State Capitol Madison, Wisconsin 53702 Dear David: Thanks for your letter of December 15. Your information on Assembly Bill 139 will be put to constructive use. We should discuss strategy on Senate Bill 14. I 11 contact you at the beginning of the year if I am in town, prior to holding a hearing on this measure. Liberals from the Law School and the Legislative Council still feel the bill should be passed in its present form, unamended; otherwise, it will die. I do not consider it alive in light of the present law and palpable injustices to heterosexuals and homosexuals alike. Best wishes for a Happy New Year. LAB:rs Justice for all, LLOYD A.

In response to your letter concerning harassments, the survey form was either misplaced or not attached. However, I submit the following: (1) I have received hate mail ranging from expressions of disagreement to threats of murder, castration or suggestions that I end my life because of some bigots' disagreement with my positions on racial justice, civil rights, the right to die, the rights of people to have sex between consenting parties, as well as my 16-year old public battle for integrated/quality education. (2) Harassing telephone calls have been delivered, not only to me, but to my children, ranging from disagreements over mass media coverage of my views as well as TV and radio appear- ances bo threats of bombing my home or ass 088- ination by hand gun or rifle. ---
