  • Retired United States Congressmen from the State of Michigan
    Retired United States Congressmen from the State of Michigan Submitted by Joshua Koss To The Honors College Oakland University In partial fulfillment of the requirement to graduate from The Honors College 1 Abstract Conventional wisdom in the study of members of Congress, pioneered by Richard Fenno, argues that one of the chief goals of elected officials is their reelection. However, this theory does not account for those who willingly retire from Congress. Who are these former members and what activities do they pursue once they leave office? To answer the first question, this project analyzes data on retired members of Congress from the state of Michigan regarding the years they served, party identification, and their age of retirement. The second and perhaps more interesting question in this research, examines the post-congressional careers of former members of Congress and whether their new line of work has any connections with their time in Congress through committee assignments and issue advocacy. In addition to quantitative analysis of the attributes of former members and their post-congressional careers, a qualitative analysis is conducted through a comparative case study of retired Senator Donald Riegle and former Representative Mike Rogers. This aspect of the study more closely examines their respective career paths through congress and post-congressional vocations. 2 Introduction In 1974, Democratic Congresswoman Martha Griffiths announced her retirement from the House of Representatives citing her age, 62, as a key motivation for the decision. After this, Griffiths would serve two terms as Michigan Lieutenant Governor before being dropped off the ticket, at the age of 78, due to concerns about her age, a claim she deemed “ridiculous” (“Griffiths, Martha Wright”).

DIARY OF WILLIAM OWEN From November 10, 1824, to April 20, 1825 EDITED BY JOEL W. HIATT LC INDIANAPOLIS: THE BOBBS-MERRILL COMPANY. 1906. 601 25 Pat 14 F521 .I41 114026 08 iii PREFACE. 3 456 Part 2 8 The manuscript of this diary of William Owen has remained in the hands of his only daughter—formerly Mary Francis Owen, now Mrs. Joel W. Hiatt—for many years and its existence, save to a few, has been unknown. It is fragmentary in form. It is possibly the close of a journal which had been kept for years before. Its first sentence in the original is an incomplete one, showing that there was an antecedent portion. The picture of the times is so graphic than the Indiana Historical Society publishes it, on account of its historical value. Mr. Owen was 22 years old at the time of its composition. Diary of William Owen from November 10, 1824 to April 20, 1825 ed. by Joel W.

Their names were Robert Dale, William, David Dale, and Richard. Three of them, Robert Dale, David Dale and Richard are known where ever the sun shines on the world of literature or science. William, who, because of habit or for his own amusement, wrote this diary is not known to fame.

  • August 10, 2005 the Honorable Arlen Specter the Honorable Patrick J
    August 10, 2005 The Honorable Arlen Specter The Honorable Patrick J. Leahy Committee on the Judiciary United States Senate Washington, DC 20510 Dear Chairman Specter and Senator Leahy: I am writing to express to you my concern about suggestions that one of John Roberts’ Supreme Court arguments reflects an ideology that leads him “to excuse violence against other Americans.” This assertion is based upon the role that Roberts played as Deputy Solicitor General in 1991 and 1992 in briefing and arguing on behalf of the United States in Bray v. Alexandria Clinic. Such a suggestion is unfair and unwarranted. The question in Bray was whether protests which blocked access to reproductive health clinics and which all agreed violated state civil and criminal trespass laws also violated a provision of the federal Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871. In his briefing and argument before the Supreme Court on behalf of the United States, Roberts argued that a particular provision of the 1871 Act in question only provided remedies against acts directed at a class of people defined by a class characteristic and that did not apply to those motivated by opposition to abortion. I disagreed with the position Roberts argued. But the question was a complex one, prior Supreme Court precedents had taken a narrow view of the provision, and in the end six Justices agreed with Roberts’ basic argument. (In response to Bray, Congress adopted new legislation – the Freedom of Access to Clinics Act – which, unlike the 1871 law, directly addressed the problem of clinic access and provided a more effective cause of action than would have been possible under the 19th Century law interpreted in Bray.) I also fear that some people will be left with the impression that Roberts is somehow associated with clinic bombers.
