Scope and Contents note

In addition, the series includes some material on general legislation not sponsored by Graham, as well as correspondence related to this legislation. A small amount of federal and non-Florida legislation is also included. Although most of the files deal with specific pieces of legislation or legislative issues, there are also several files containing legislative summaries of bills introduced by Graham during specific sessions. A small portion of the material pertains to the activities and organization of the Florida legislature.
