The press releases date from January 1995 to November 1996. They include drafts and final copies of the release, distribution lists, background information, and staff memorandums. The releases cover Payne's appearances at local events and speeches before constituent groups, his floor statements and congressional testimonies and positions on various issues, legislative actions taken by Congress, grant award announcements, articles and op-ed pieces he wrote, and constituent mailings.  \n","There is one box of office files containing information on Payne's chief of staff Mark T. Bowles, including his financial disclosure statement, as well as a small amount of constituent correspondence, a staff handbook, an analysis of a staff seminar, visitors' register, and other items. \n","The campaign files contain information relating to Payne's campaigns for Congress in 1992 and 1994, but the vast majority of the files concern his unsuccessful run for lieutenant governor of Virginia. Payne announced his resignation from Congress on 5 February 1996, and his bid for lieutenant governor on 16 September 1996. He lost the race to John Hager in the November 1997 election. The campaign files contain letters sent to Payne upon his retirement from Congress, opposition research, media files, candidate questionnaires, debate preparation information, press releases issued by Don Beyer, who was the Democratic nominee for Governor, event schedules, campaign literature, election results, issues and opinion research and polling information prepared by consultants, campaign plans and strategies, policy ideas and information, and message development. There is a substantial amount of information concerning fundraising, including budgets, campaign contribution and expenditure reports for Payne and other candidates submitted to the State Board of Elections, contacts, donor lists, plans and projections, phone call lists, fundraising event files, and copies of donation checks and lists of deposits. There is also a large campaign banner at the end of the collection. There is additional campaign material in the Special Media series. \n","The special media include cassette tapes, computer floppy discs, and VHS videotapes. The cassette tapes contain campaign radio spots as well as interviews by Payne and others on local radio stations. The videotapes are mostly related to Payne's campaigns for Congress and lieutenant governor, including television commercials prepared by political consulting firms, as well as coverage of debates, local news spots, and appearances. There are also short local news segments containing interviews with Payne where he shares his views on various topics and events, including Medicare, Iraq and the Mideast, education, NAFTA, tobacco legislation, and the federal budget deficit. The files contained on computer floppy discs have been reproduced in hard copy. They relate to Payne's campaign for lieutenant governor, and include staff memorandums, form letters, speeches, and fundraising information.\n"],"userestrict_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThere are no restrictions.\n\u003c/p\u003e"],"userestrict_heading_ssm":["Use Restrictions\n"],"userestrict_tesim":["There are no restrictions.\n"],"language_ssim":["English\n"],"total_component_count_is":988,"online_item_count_is":0,"component_level_isim":[0],"sort_isi":0,"timestamp":"2026-05-21T11:04:53.616Z"}]}},"label":"Breadcrumbs"}}},"links":{"self":"https://search.arvasarchive.org/catalog/vi_vi00670_c04_c45"}}],"included":[{"type":"facet","id":"repository_ssim","attributes":{"label":"Repository","items":[{"attributes":{"label":"Library of Virginia","value":"Library of Virginia","hits":989},"links":{"self":"https://search.arvasarchive.org/catalog.json?f%5Bcollection%5D%5B%5D=L.F.+Payne%2C+Jr.+Papers%2C+%0A1988-1997\u0026f%5Brepository%5D%5B%5D=Library+of+Virginia\u0026view=compact"}}]},"links":{"self":"https://search.arvasarchive.org/catalog/facet/repository_ssim.json?f%5Bcollection%5D%5B%5D=L.F.+Payne%2C+Jr.+Papers%2C+%0A1988-1997\u0026view=compact"}},{"type":"facet","id":"collection_ssim","attributes":{"label":"Collection","items":[{"attributes":{"label":"L.F.
