    "Dennis W. Brezina, Legislative Assistant to Senator Gaylord Nelson," Oral History Interviews, Senate Historical Office, Washington, D.C. ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES Interview #2 Wednesday, August 17, 2005 RITCHIE: I want to pick up with some of the issues that we talked about last week that we didn’t quite finish. BREZINA: Fine. This is, again, a great honor to be able to be involved in your oral history project. There were some loose ends at the end of the conversation about the Harris subcommittee work I did. They were sort of poignant anecdotes that I was getting to but didn’t have time for or had pushed off to the side. One thing that really impressed me when I came over to work in the Senate from the Legislative Reference Service, that I discussed briefly last time, was that my boss, the staff director of the Harris Subcommittee on Government Research, was Steve Ebbin. He was a PhD in political science, which was not too common up here at that time, and he had come to the subcommittee from the staff of the majority leader, Mike Mansfield. However this started, I’m not sure, but there was a ritual almost every morning from about 9:00 to 9:45, or whenever the subcommittee clerk would haul Steve back over from the Capitol Building, a meeting with a half dozen or so Senate staffers in the Senate café. It wasn’t just a set group, but it included Charlie Ferris and Dan Leach, who were on Mansfield’s floor staff, George Murphy with the Joint Committee on Atomic Energy, a couple of people from Russell Long’s staff, Wayne Thevenot and John McConnell, and then a few others.

  • Conversation with Senator Harold Hughes
    Addiction (1997) 92(2), 137-149 JOURNAL INTERVIEW—39 Conversation with Senator Harold Hughes Sadiy, Senator Hughes died on 24th October 1996. Senator Edward Kennedy svas shown a copy of this interview with Senator Hughes and has very kindly provided the following comment for publication: "This eloquent interview with Harold Hughes reminds me of koto much he accomplished in his extraordinary life and how much we missed him when he left the Senate. He was a powerful force for compassion and justice. His vigorous pursuit of fair treatment for persons battling addiction is legendary. He had approached his ovm problem with honesty and frankness, at a time when the rest of America discussed alcohol abuse in whispered tones, behind closed doors. Harold Hughes changed aU that, and brought hope and help to vast numbers of his fellow citizens. The country continues to reap the benefits of his work, including the establishment of the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism at the National Institutes of Health. If vie see farther today on these important issues, it is because we stand on the shoulders of giants like Harold Hughes." A: Senator Hughes, your actions as a United States because there was no science in the way I got Senator in the early 1970s made you a towering sober, there was no medicine, there was no dry- figure—a hero—to researchers and clinicians who are ing out. I was, in fact, at the point where my first familiar with the history of US govemment policy wife filed a legal action to have me committed to dealing with problems uiith alcohol and other drugs.

  • Caucuses and Elections Source Set Teaching Guide
    TEACHING WITH PRIMARY SOURCES Caucuses and Elections How do presidential candidates, their campaigns and their supporters attempt to win the vote of the American electorate? For a hundred years after the Civil War, Iowa was a reliably Republican state. Only during the crisis of the Great Depression in the 1930s did Iowa show up in the Democratic column on election night. However, beginning the 1950s, the Democratic Party took on new life in the face of rural/urban divisions, the growing strength of labor unions, and attention to national issues like civil rights and the Vietnam war. Cities pushed for more equitable representation in the legislature against rural resistance. Despite its smaller size and population, Iowa became very important in the election of a U.S. President. Each state has its own process for selecting delegates to national political conventions where the parties nominate their candidates. Iowa uses a caucus system. Members of each party meet together in local meetings called caucuses to select delegates to a county convention that chooses delegates to the district and state conventions. The state conventions are held in June and choose delegates to the national convention. Because the process takes many months, the local caucus has to meet in January or early February to get all the steps done. Because of that timing, the Iowa caucus becomes the first official step anywhere in the nation in selecting a president, and news reporters flock to the state to find out which candidates are ahead. In 1972, Senator George McGovern gained national attention when he came out on top of the Iowa caucuses.
