A propos de cet article

- 32 words typed on a cream-colored 10-1/2 inch high by 8 inch wide sheet of Congress of the United States / House of Representatives letterhead. Signed "Dave". The top edge of the letter is very lightly creased. Folded twice for mailing. Near fine. Treen writes to Congressman Seymour Halpern thanking him for writing on the occasion of Treen's reelection: "You were very generous in your remarks and I will endeavor to justify your confidence".American attorney and politician David C. Treen [1928-2009] grew up in Louisiana as a Democrat, but joined the Republican Party in 1962. In 1972 he was the first Republican in modern times to be elected to the House of Representatives from Louisiana. He represented Louisiana's Third District from 1973 to 1980.

His election was a sign of changing party affiliations among white conservatives in the state who had comprised a majority of the population since at least 1900. Treen served as governor from 1980-84, losing his bid for reelection to popular rival Democrat Edwin Edwards.The Queens, New York Republican Congressman Seymour Halpern (1913-1997) started his political career as a campaign aide to New York's powerful mayor Fiorella La Guardia and first served in New York's State Senate for 14 years before seeking a seat in the U.S. Congress. In Albany Halpern sponsored 279 bills that became law, including measures on schools, housing, civil rights, nutrition and mental health. A Liberal, he was something of an anomaly as the lone Republican representative from New York City, and generally garnered support from Labor Unions and endorsement from the Liberal Party. Yet he never even considered switching parties as he considered membership in the Republican Party a family tradition and commitment. While he found ample time for his private pursuits, including painting and collecting autographs, he took his legislative duties very seriously. Of these, he was proudest of his co-sponsorship of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and of the original 1965 Medicare legislation.…
