Series VI. Speeches, 1983-2000 .

Containers:

Box 77-90

Extent:

Extent: 14 boxes.

Scope and content:

The speeches contain copies of remarks delivered by Sisisky to various civic, religious, and cultural organizations, mostly in Virginia's Fourth Congressional district. There is also testimony by him before various House and Senate committees. There are copies of floor statements and testimonies for 1983 to 1987 at the end of the series. The arrangement of the speeches is chronological, but not strictly. For example, the speeches for 1994 are in reverse chronological order. There is a "speech index" that was prepared by Sisisky's staff at the beginning of each year, but not all of the speeches are included on the list. The researcher should consult the Library's finding aid for a complete listing. Most of the folders contain only copies of his remarks. There is very little supporting documentation, correspondence, research, drafts, notes, or invitations to the particular event.
