Consider the record of Harry Byrd.
He is independent-minded because he believes the welfare of Virginians and America must come before political partisanship.
He speaks clearly and plainly on the issues, anti he votes in accordance with his conscience and best judgment.
He holds firmly to the fundamentals of constitutional government and sound fiscal policies.
He recognizes that taxes —to use his own words —"are paid in the sweat of all who labor'.'
And. working for you. he has voted on c)7 percent of Senate roll-calls.
Here is where Senator Byrd stands on some of the key issues facing Virginia and the Nation.

Welfare. Senator Byrd believes the government has an obligation to those physically or mentally unable to earn a living.
"But I do not want to turn over tax funds of hard-working citizens to able-bodied persons who refuse to work'.'

If you want a Senator w ho cares about the iiulix idual but doesn't coddle up to the radical liberals, you'll vole to re-elect Byrd November 3rd.
