This series contains files from Pat Swindall's Washington office, and includes memoranda, correspondence, committee reports, written testimony, and news clippings. These materials pertain largely to issues surrounding the Mariel Cuban detainees housed at the Atlanta Penitentiary, financial reform in the wake of the 1987 stock market crash, and Swindall's work on the Administrative Law and Governmental Relations Subcommittee, but also include documents and reports related to other, miscellaneous legislation.
