Appropriations Subseries, 1985-1994 and undated

Scope and content:

Concerns government appropriations initiatives and related programs. There are many copies of outgoing letters that were sent to committee members asking for appropriations or support for a particular appropriations bill important to North Carolina. Letters between Congresspersons often discuss or request specific "language" be included in a bill. Drafts of letters from Price to constituents are also common.

Document types are diverse and include the following: committee and conference reports; printed materials, especially informational documents such as fact sheets and documents that were likely kept as background/support materials; memos; bills; hearing documents; and correspondence, especially "Dear Colleague letters."

The files are in order roughly by legislative subject area. Within each one, the files are unarranged. Since the subcommittees changed names and jurisdictions over time, search in multiple categories for a comprehensive search.
