Dean A. Gallo Congressional Papers 1982-1994, bulk 1984-1994

Dean A. Gallo was a realtor in Morris County, New Jersey. After serving successively in elective offices at the local, county and state levels, he was elected to Congress as a Republican to serve a district that was centered in Morris County. Winning re-election four times, Gallo served New Jersey’s 11th Congressional District from January 1985 through his death in November 1994. His Congressional papers (including audio-visual materials and some photographs) span the entire period that he was in office. The papers document Gallo’s activities, his positions on issues, his legislative actions and initiatives, his election campaigns, his Congressional travels, and, to a lesser extent, the activities of his Washington office. Among the topics represented are environmental protection, the continuation of Picatinny Arsenal as a functioning military base and the plight of Soviet Refusniks.
