It's Official: $1 Bil. Review Is a Go

President Clinton signed legislation Friday morning that creates an unprecedented $1 billion budget for an anti-drug advertising effort over the next five years.
Congress passed the appropriation of $178 million for 1998 and $195 million annually for the following four years, as expected.
The White House Office of Drug Control Policy, sometime after Jan. 1, 1998, will conduct a review for an ad agency or media buying service to place media, said Alan Levitt, senior adviser and chief of the education branch of the Office of Drug Control Policy.
