(Saturn Project)
Dear Dr. Sullivan:
We just wanted to drop you a short note to express our appreciation for your interest and willingness to meet with us on such short notice.
Again Leon, allow us at this time to personally thank you for your time and great consideration during our meeting on Thursday February 7, 1985, and for your statement of personal regard for Mr. Plato and your acquiescence to the request of the National Black Political Caucus to meet with us, Senator Timothy Shaffer of Pennsylvania, and Marthann Rettig, Executive Director of the Community Development Corporation of Butler County. Quite plainly, you are a distinguished individual concerned with all humanity and pre-occupied with the well being of people of color; one who clearly recognizes the interests of all are inextricably tied together. This is the quality that sets one apart from a typical politician.
Your continued cooperation is most appreciated. If we can be of further assistance, do not hesitate to call or write.
Respectfully yours,
Reginald D. Plato, President
Ronald B. Saunders, Chairman

It was my idea that the National Black Political Caucus lobby for the building of the new GM Saturn Plant in Slippery Rock Twp. PA.
We spent many months and hours lobbying for this project along with the Butler Community Development Corporation.
