Part 1 (2003/003, VHA 529): Original Collection, 1989-2002
9.8 c.f. (9 record center cartons and 2 archives boxes) and 1 videotape
: The papers, 1989-2002, consist of alphabetically-arranged subject files containing advocacy material; clippings; committee files; and correspondence, e-mail, and memoranda. The files document both her Senate career and her tenure as lieutenant governor, although the earlier years are most extensively covered. The senatorial papers represent, in particular, her interest in educational reform, taxes, storm water runoff in her home district, participation in the Governor's Blue Ribbon Task Force on Passenger Service, and Waukesha County Technical College. Her papers as lieutenant governor most extensively document service on the Council on Workforce Development, the Governor's Task Force on Invasive Species (zebra mussels), and the Task Force on State and Local Government (Sheehy Commission), as well as general concerns with the biennial budget and health care issues. The videotape concerns the zebra mussel issue.
