Abstract:

Legislative papers of a Democrat from Milwaukee who served in the Wisconsin Assembly and Senate, 1971-1982. Alphabetically-arranged subject files contain press releases, newsletters, questionnaires, schedules, and writings as well as constituent correspondence and floor debate material on abortion, Milwaukee politics and government, probate reform, taxes, and other issues of legislative concern. Committee files document Berger's leadership of the Joint Committee for the Review of Administrative Rules, although the files are not the official committee records. Especially well documented is an investigation of the Bureau of Migrant and Rural Services by Senator Peter Bear's Legislative Oversight Subcommittee. Other notable committee files pertain to Berger's work on condominium legislation and product liability. Additional files inherited from Bear pertain to volunteerism, and records from Jerome Martin pertain to the Senate Subcommittee on Small Business.
