| Abstract: | 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. |

The Congressional papers of Dean Anderson Gallo document his career as a United States Representative from the 11th District in northern New Jersey (primarily Morris and western Essex counties) spanning the years from 1984 to 1994. The collection is composed of correspondence, memos, speeches, reports, press releases, appointment books and schedules, as well as printed material such as newspaper clippings, newsletters and campaign literature. Photographs, audiotapes and a large number of videotapes are also included.
Gallo’s papers contain information relating to many aspects of United States public policy, especially in the areas of health care, trade (particularly those concerning small business) and the environment (especially Superfund cleanup initiatives and legislation to mandate double hulls on oil tankers). Material relating to these issues can be found in the BILLS FILES.
Additional documentation of Gallo’s legislative activities can be found in BRIEFING MEMOS, among which are notes and fact sheets on current issues and pending legislation, as well as internal memos to Gallo’s staff summarizing his positions and activities. The LEGISLATIVE PROFILES detail Gallo’s sponsored and cosponsored bills and the VOTING RECORD [“LEGISLATIVE ACTIVITY GUIDE”] summarizes Gallo’s voting record from 1985 to 1993. The LEGISLATIVE UPDATES AND SUMMARIES were created to be used by his three district offices and thus also provide an overview of his legislative activities. The WHIP CHECKS AND ORGANIZATIONAL LISTS date from 1987 to 1988 (the 100th Congress) and indicate which way Gallo planned to vote on particular issues.
Gallo’s views on issues and specific bills are found in several locations in the collection. Various PRESS RELEASES are relevant, as are many of Gallo's CONGRESSIONAL RECORD REMARKS. Issues relating exclusively to New Jersey’s 11th District are documented in the CONSTITUENT NEWSLETTERS. The CAMPAIGN FILES also contain summaries of Gallo’s political concerns and positions throughout his career.
The PRESS CLIPPINGS date chiefly from the 1990s and further document Gallo’s political activities and opinions. These articles are grouped together under subject headings assigned by his staff; the headings also serve to provide insight into subjects of interest to Gallo. Additional press clippings are interfiled throughout the collection.
Chiefly New Jersey-related, the PROJECT AND ISSUE FILES include documentation of some of Gallo’s cosponsored measures and non-legislative activities with particular emphasis on small business concerns and health care. Other non-legislative projects that are particularly well represented are documented by the PICATINNY ARSENAL FILES that relate to Gallo’s successful efforts in preventing the closure of Picatinny Arsenal (Rockaway Township, New Jersey) and the SOVIET “REFUSNIK” FILES that pertain to his attempts to assist persecuted Jewish citizens in emigrating from the Soviet Union to be reunited with their New Jersey families.
Five additional series comprise the remainder of the papers. The SPEECHES were given at various public events in Gallo’s home district and often include supplemental material in the form of memos, news clippings and press releases. The TRAVEL FILES consist of documentation of Gallo’s involvement in foreign affairs through his trips to Israel, Central America, the Soviet Union and South Africa. The PHOTOGRAPHS are largely from Gallo’s trips to foreign countries, with Central America and Israel the most represented. Among the other events documented in this series is a 1992 tour of Superfund sites in New Jersey. Among the AUDIO AND VIDEO TAPE RECORDINGS are statements made by Gallo on the House floor and interviews, debates and appearances on television shows, including Ask Congress, Congressional Conversations and Caucus New Jersey. Some campaign promotions are also represented in this series. The BIOGRAPHICAL FILES consist solely of material about Gallo’s retirement from Congress and his subsequent death from cancer in 1994.

| PICATTINY ARSENAL FILES, 1990-1994 (.65 cubic feet) | |||||||||||
| Arrangement: Arranged alphabetically by subject headings. | |||||||||||
| Summary: Documentation of Gallo’s efforts to prevent Picatinny Arsenal (Rockaway Township, Morris County, New Jersey) from being closed under the Department of Defense’s Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) program. Primarily consists of correspondence, between Gallo, his office, Joe Taglairino of Concerned Responsible Individuals to Save Picatinny (CRISP) and the Department of the Army, discussing strategies to save Picatinny, as well as press releases and news clippings. Some files also document Gallo’s work in obtaining federal funding for Picatinny projects. | |||||||||||
| Among the other materials present are two reports to the BRAC, “Report on Picatinny Arsenal and the 1991 Base Closure and Realignment Process,” by Gallo and six other New Jersey Representatives, and a final draft of Gallo’s 1993 report, “Picatinny Arsenal: Making an Irreplaceable Contribution to the Army of the Future.” There are information packets from Gallo’s visit to Picatinny in March 1991 and from Legislative Director Bob Bostock’s visit to Picatinny in April 1993 for briefings on Picatinny’s activities and services. Also present are a speech, program and press releases from the 1992 groundbreaking ceremony for the Rossi-Cayton Armaments Technology Facility at Picatinny, named after Major Marie T. Rossi-Cayton who was killed in the 1991 Persian Gulf War. The July 1993 “Military Base Closings Information Packet” from the Northeast-Midwest Congressional Coalition (“FY ‘93 Military Construction Requests” folder) includes lists of base closings and BRAC committee members, schedules for committee activities and statistics on military spending, reduction in personnel, etc. Other papers include details of and statistics on Voluntary Early Retirement Authority (VERA) separation pay offered by Picatinny to avoid involuntary layoffs in May and June of 1993 (with a copy of the Arsenal’s request to the Army to use the monetary separation incentive). In addition, there is material dating from 1994 about BRAC closings, proceedings for the following year, lists of committee members and a summary of BRAC’s previous activities, as well as a 1995 schedule (“BRAC ‘95” folder). | |||||||||||
| The potential closing of the Naval Ordnance Station in Louisville (NOSL), Kentucky, was also a concern of Gallo’s, as the base engaged in several cooperative research projects with Picatinny. Among the items related to this issue are a copy of Gallo’s testimony before the Base Realignment and Closure Commission in 1993 in which he calls for the NOSL to remain open, as well as a copy of a memo from FMC Naval Systems Division that was obtained by the Concerned Responsible Individuals to Save Picatinny (CRISP) and forwarded to Gallo’s office. The memo details a plan by FMC, a competitor of NOSL, to have the Kentucky facility closed under the BRAC program. | |||||||||||

| SOVIET "REFUSNIKS" FILES, 1986-1988 (.95 cubic feet) | |||||||||||
| Arrangement: Arranged alphabetically in two sequences: first part by subject headings, remainder by surname. | |||||||||||
| Summary: Documentation of Gallo’s efforts to obtain the right to emigrate for refusniks. Chiefly correspondence from Gallo’s office to the Soviet government, families, supporters and colleagues, internal memos from Gallo’s office, handwritten notes and letters to the Soviet government signed by members of Congress. | |||||||||||
| Biographical information on individual refusniks is also included, chiefly in the folders labeled with personal names. Among the other items of interest in these folders are: a twelve-page autobiography of refusnik Marina Furman and an 18-page document about refusniks, “A Great Miracle Will Happen Here: A Journal of Meetings with Soviet Jews During the Week of Chanukha, December, 1986 through January, 1987,” written by Shira Leibowitz and dedicated to Marina Furman (Furman folder); signed petitions calling for the Soviets to allow Myron Ferenc to emigrate, as well as letters written by United States schoolchildren to Gallo and to the Soviet government in support of Ferenc (Myron Ferenc folder); two copies of A Child In Refusal, “a selection of articles by refusnik mothers and a lighthearted but yet sad children’s view of refusnik life,” published by the Soviet Jewry Education and Information Centre, Jerusalem, inscribed to Gallo and Donna Mullins, respectively, on October 12, 1987 (Shenderovich folder); a petition signed by U.S. citizens calling for the Soviet government to allow Galina and David Livshitz to emigrate (Livshitz folder); and a copy of the 1988 Congressional Handbook for Soviet Jewry (volume 1), published by the Union of Councils for Soviet Jews in Washington, D.C. The handbook includes a directory of Soviet Jewry organizations, a directory of Soviet officials, a section on how members of Congress aid Soviet Jews, Congressional Record statements on the issue from the 100th Congress and sample Congressional letters (Zaslavsky folder). | |||||||||||
| The “Human Rights Record” consists of printed reports from the Congressional Human Rights Caucus Tracking System, for the years 1986 to 1988, listing activities in which Gallo was involved on behalf of human rights. Each entry contains a brief summary of the case, Congressional action taken and a list of Congressional members who participated. The 1986 report includes annotations. | |||||||||||
| The “List of Refusniks” folder contains general information on Soviet emigration and a few papers dealing with the Kleinermans, a refusnik family. There is a one-page memo, December 23, 1988, from the Union of Councils for Soviet Jews identifying refusniks who had recently been granted permission to emigrate or whose secrecy restriction had been lifted. The folder also contains a copy of a Hearing before the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe pertaining to “The Current Situation in Poland.” | |||||||||||
| Located in the “Resolved Cases” folder is a 24-page transcript of remarks made by John Loftus at the semi-annual meeting of the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, Inc., May 14, 1987. The remarks deal with his work as a member of President Carter’s Office of Special Investigations, during which Loftus uncovered U.S. intelligence files that indicated that the United States had possessed detailed knowledge of the Holocaust. These remarks briefly reference H.R. 1620, a bill cosponsored by Gallo, intended to establish a Commission to investigate Federal involvement with the immigration of Nazi collaborators. There are also two pages from a January/February 1988 Rutgers Magazine article written by refusnik Marina Shenderovich. | |||||||||||
| The “Status of Refusniks” folder contains an information packet addressing American bureaucratic delays in issuing U.S. entrance visas to refusniks who had been granted permission to leave the Soviet Union. | |||||||||||
| Several folders focus on emigration restrictions and human rights abuses in Ukraine, and they include the first issue of the Russian-American Review (Fall 1988), a brochure, The Millennium of Christianity in Russia 988-1988, and a reprint of an article from the Winter 1988 issue of Policy Review, “The National Rebirth of Russia: A U.S. Strategy for Lifting the Soviet Siege,” by David Moro. The contents of the folder “Ukraine and Ukrainians,” containing general information about the region, were sent to Gallo by the Ukrainian National Association. | |||||||||||
| Some related photos are located in PHOTOGRAPHS under “Soviet Refusniks.” | |||||||||||
| An audiotape of a phone call between Gallo and a Soviet refusnik can be found in AUDIO AND VIDEO TAPE RECORDINGS. | |||||||||||
