1b. Staff files, 1987-2000

 Sub-Series

Scope and Contents

Files from staff members in Mack's D.C. office. Most were legislative assistants assigned to particular areas of legislation. Their files document specific bills, budget appropriations, and topics related to pending or possible legislation. Documented here are internal discussions between Mack and his staff on the questions of the day as well as correspondence with other legislators and interested parties.

The series is broken down into 21 further sub-series, each sub-subseries representing the files of a particular staff member. Files were often shared with several subordinate staff members and the names that appear here are the names of the primary staff members. Many of these files are only fragments. Carryover files from previous staffers are also common. Finally, not all of Mack's D.C. staff is represented.

The subseries are (listed alphabetically): Shellie B. Bressler (1991-1998), Jamie E. Brown (1989-1998), Tracie R. Chesterman (1995-2000; bulk: 1998-2000), Kimberly K. Cobb (1991-1996), Colleen P.
