Thursday, March 1, 2012 -1244- JOURNAL of the SENATE Thursday, March 1, 2012 -1244- JOURNAL OF THE SENATE THURSDAY, MARCH 1, 2012 The Senate met at 12 m. and was called to order by Lieutenant Governor William T. Bolling. The Reverend Michael Grooms, Rainbow Forest Baptist Church, Troutville, Virginia, offered the following prayer: Today, I feel it appropriate and timely to repeat a prayer that was supposedly prayed by Thomas Jefferson, third president of the United States. Some believe it was from the American Common Book of Prayer attributed by George Lyman Locke. In any case it is a great prayer to remember for these days of crisis. Almighty God, who has given us this good land for our heritage, we humbly beseech Thee that we may always prove ourselves a people mindful of Thy favor and glad to do Thy will. Bless our land with honorable ministry, sound learning, and pure manners. Save us from violence, discord, and confusion, from pride and arrogance, and from every evil way. Defend our liberties, and fashion into one united people, the multitude brought hither out of many kindreds and tongues. Endow with Thy spirit of wisdom those whom in Thy name we entrust the authority of government, that there may be justice and peace at home, and that through obedience to Thy law, we may show forth Thy praise among the nations of the earth. In time of prosperity fill our hearts with thankfulness, and in the day of trouble, suffer not our trust in Thee to fail; all of which we ask through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. The roll was called and the following Senators answered to their names: Barker, Black, Blevins, Carrico, Colgan, Deeds, Ebbin, Edwards, Favola, Garrett, Hanger, Herring, Howell, Locke, Lucas, Marsden, Marsh, Martin, McDougle, McEachin, McWaters, Miller, J.C., Miller, Y.B., Newman, Norment, Northam, Obenshain, Petersen, Puckett, Puller, Reeves, Ruff, Smith, Stanley, Stosch, Stuart, Vogel, Wagner, Watkins.

(And please do not copy, cite or circulate it without permission.) I have just submitted the manuscript (seconds ago) to Oxford for copy-editing, so I won’t be able to add any new chapters, based on what you tell me. But I will be able to make changes when the manuscript comes back from the copy-editor and before I submit the final version. It would ideal if you could make your criticisms as targeted/specific as possible so I know what to fix, massage, rewrite, add, delete, etc. But whatever you say, I really look forward to being with all of you again.

Table of Contents Interview Abstract i Interviewee Biography i Editing Practices ii Citation Information iii Interviewer Biography iii Interview One 1 Interview Two 44 Interview Three 90 Interview Four 135 Notes 177 Index 181 Abstract In the summer of 1941, just before his 15th birthday, Joe Bartlett left the family farm in rural West Virginia to work as a Page on Capitol Hill. But what he expected would be a one-month position became a House career that spanned 38 years. Bartlett eventually served as the chief of Pages, then as a reading clerk and, in the 1970s, as Clerk to the Minority—the senior Republican staff officer in the House. In his series of interviews, he provided many details on House proceedings and insights on how each of his positions fit into the day-to-day operation of the institution. Bartlett witnessed and described many historic events during his long tenure on the Hill, including President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s “Day of Infamy” speech on December 8, 1941 and the 1954 shooting in the House Chamber. His interviews touched upon the daily routines, customs, and traditions he observed in the U.S.
