  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

    Earth Day 1970-1995: An Information Perspective Fred Stoss <[email protected]> Energy, Environment, and Resources Center, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN 37932, USA. TEL: 615- 675-9510. "Earth Day is a commitment to make life better, not just bigger and faster; to provide real rather than rhetorical solutions. It is a day to re-examine the ethic of individual progress at mankind's expense. It is a day to challenge the corporate and government leaders who promise change, but who shortchange the necessary programs. It is a day for looking beyond tomorrow. April 22 seeks a future worth living. April 22 seeks a future." Environmental Teach-In Advertisement New York Times January 18, 1970 (1) The celebratory event known as "Earth Day," created in 1969 and 1970, found its initial inspiration in the 1950s and 1960s, decades marked by tremendous social and cultural awareness, times of activism and change. One cultural concept around which millions of people began to rally was the environment. The legacy of environmental thought in the decades prior to the first Earth Day gave birth to the event in 1970. A body of environmental literature emerged in the United States which traced its roots to the colonial and post-Revolutionary War periods. The writings of Henry David Thoreau, John Muir, and George Perkins in the latter half of the 19th and in the 20th century stimulated and created a philosophy and ethic for the environment and concerns for nature and the wilderness. The "birth" of the contemporary environmental movement began with the 1949 publication of Aldo Leopold's SAND COUNTRY ALMANAC, considered by many to be one of the most important books on conservation.

The governor’s veto power, however, is not absolute. Although the governor may veto legislation, the legislature may override a veto by a two-thirds supermajority vote. Just as the legislature’s lawmaking power is a qualified power subject to veto, the governor’s veto power is a qualified power subject to legislative override. This paper examines the legislature’s power to override executive vetoes. The paper describes the legislature’s veto override power, charts the veto override process, and dis- cusses the history of veto overrides. The paper finds that even though the legislature’s veto override power is potentially a significant limitation on the governor’s veto power, the failure of the legislature to override vetoes in recent decades has made the governor’s veto power practically invincible.

AT A LOSS: THE STATE OF WISCONSIN AFTER EIGHT YEARS WITHOUT THE PUBLIC INTERVENOR'S OFFICE JODI HABUSH SINYKIN* I. INTRODUCTION In the years since its elimination in 1995, citizens and state officials have made a concerted effort to restore the Wisconsin Public Intervenor's Office ("the Office"). The Office was a state entity created in 1967 by Republican Governor Warren P. Knowles to protect public rights in the state's natural resources and to ensure fair play and due process for matters of environmental concern. With every passing year since the Office's demise, the base of citizen and political support for its restoration has only grown larger. The 2003 Assembly Bill 46, seeking the reinstatement of a Public Intervenor's Office with all of the authority and powers possessed by the Office prior to 1995, represents the most current legislative effort in this respect.

  • Angela Cannon a Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of The
    VISIONARIES IN WISCONSIN'S CONSERVATION HISTORY by Angela Cannon A Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE College of Natural Resources UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN Stevens Point, Wisconsin December 1993 APPROVED BY THE GRADUATE COMMITTEE OF: r. ichael Gross, Committee Chairman Profes or of Environmental Education/Interpretation Dr. Christine Thomas Professor of Natural Resources Dr. arl Spangenb Professor of Natural Resources and President of the Wisconsin Conseivation Hall of Fame. 11 ABSTRACT Throughout American history, Wisconsin has pioneered new ideas and progressive steps toward the conservation of natural resources. For example; Wisconsin set precedent for the first rural zoning law, was the first state in the nation to ban the use of DDT, and has set standards for some of the most stringent groundwater and ozone layer protection legislation in the United States. These progressive programs and accomplishments have come about through the efforts of Wisconsin's citizens - many of them leaders in the conservation and environmental movement. These individuals have demonstrated great wisdom, perseverance and vision regarding quality of life and quality of the environment in this state and the nation. This thesis examines the conservation history in the state with a separate compendium of significant dates and events. A contemporary definition for the term "conservation" was created by the researcher using responses from the Wisconsin Conservation Hall of Fame Board of Directors and Board of Governors in a modified Delphi-Panel survey. 18 short biographies on the Inductees in the Wisconsin Conservation Hall of Fame located in Stevens Point, form the final accumulation of this research into Wisconsin's conservation and environmental history of the last 150 years.
