Sub-Series IV: Measures Not Co-Sponsored & Held for Action,, 1961 - 1976.
Dates
- 1961 - 1976.
Scope and Contents
Measures Not Co-Sponsored & Held for Action includes material related to proposed legislation and correspondence that HAW either chose not to co-sponsor or set aside for future consideration. The files consist primarily of the Dear Colleague letter and supporting attachments requesting HAW to co-sponsor a proposed piece of legislation. Many of the letters, though not most, include attached analyses and recommendations by HAW's staff, usually in the form of brief notes. The range of issues covered by the material is wide with no particular focus. Aside from providing insight into a variety of legislative proposals, the material in the sub-series relates generally to many issues found in other parts of the collection.
There are gaps in the files of measures not co-sponsored for some Congressional terms. Held for Action files appear only in the early 1970s.
