Abstract:

Legislative papers of a Democratic State Senator (1974-) from Janesville who served as majority leader (1982-). The papers chiefly consist of files on two committees which Cullen chaired: the Senate Committee on Aging, Business and Financial Institutions, and Transportation and the Legislative Council's Committee on Mining. The former includes correspondence, memoranda, notes, clippings, reports and research material concerning mortgage subsidization plans, raising the drinking age, property tax deferrals for the elderly, the appointment of Owen Ayres to head the Department of Transportation, and other matters considered by the committee. Mining Committee files include similar documentation as well as agenda, summary meeting transcripts, and public hearing statements. Also included are files on several mining subcommittees Cullen headed, most notably the Subcommittee on Uranium Exploration and Safety. Taken together, the Mining Committee files concern taxation and safety issues raised by mining company exploration of northern Wisconsin during the late 1970's and early 1980's
