INTRODUCTION

Virginia H. Knauer joined the Nixon administration staff in April 1969 as Chairman of the President’s Committee on Consumer Interests (PCCI) and Special Assistant to the President for Consumer Affairs. President Nixon named Knauer Director of the Office of Consumer Affairs (OCA) when it replaced PCCI in 1971. Knauer remained head of the OCA after it was absorbed by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) in 1973. After President Nixon’s resignation, President Ford retained Knauer as Special Assistant to the President for Consumer Affairs within the new Office of Public Liaison (OPL) under William J. Baroody, Jr., Assistant to the President for Public Liaison.

The Office of Consumer Affairs coordinated the consumer activities of the Federal government in cooperation with state agencies, industry representatives, and consumer organizations. It also promoted consumer education and recommended legislation based on consumer interests. As head of this office, Knauer oversaw administrative matters, appropriations, and various consumer related programs such as the Consumer Information Center. As Special Assistant to the President for Consumer Affairs, Knauer developed consumer policy and communicated with consumers on behalf of the Administration.

The materials in this collection are unlike those from other units of OPL because they primarily relate to Knauer’s work as head of the OCA outside of the OPL. The collection includes substantial material on the conception and development of the President’s Consumer Representation Plans as well as a series of budget materials relating to Congressional appropriations for the OCA. This collection also contains records pertaining to the OCA’s deputy director position, held by John S. Byington, from 1974-1976.

Knauer was a member of the Energy Resources Council and her interest in the energy industry is well represented in this collection. Materials documenting the OCA’s consumer energy conservation initiative can be found in the “General File” series and the “Speeches” series contains several speeches on the topic of energy and fuel conservation.

Files related to the Consumer Advisory Council are also part of the Knauer Files. This Council was created to provide the Director of the Office of Consumer Affairs with advice and recommendations from consumer experts in a variety of areas.

Knauer served as a U.S. representative on the Consumer Policy Committee of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). She was also Vice Chairman for the Committee. Records pertaining to her work with the OECD are included in the “Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD)” series.

SERIES DESCRIPTIONS

Consumer Representation Plan File, 1975‑76.  (Boxes A1‑A21, 9.2 linear feet)
Under the direction of the President, the Office of Consumer Affairs collaborated with 17 federal agencies to develop consumer representation plans. These plans contained a description of current consumer-related activities and new policies to increase consumer involvement in decision making and program development. This series contains materials related to the development, publication, and implementation of the President’s Consumer Representation Plan. Following an initial discussion of the plan’s purpose and structure, each agency submitted its consumer representation plan proposal for publication. To promote public discussion, the Office of Consumer Affairs held a series of consumer conferences and hearings across the country. The President’s initiative was also subject to a Congressional Oversight hearing. The transcripts for these events are included in the White House Regional Conferences subseries and the Hearings subseries. The feedback received during the 90-day comment period comprises the Public Comment subseries, which includes general and agency specific comments. In the final phase of the plan, the agencies submitted working drafts for evaluation and the final editions were published. Materials relating to the logistics of publication and implementation are included in the Final Consumer Representation Plans subseries.
