Talk:Reading Clerk of the United States House of Representatives

untitled
Is anyone looking to expand the listing backwards in time? I know that during the 1980's the House reading clerks (according to the Congressional Record) were Mr. Berry and Mr. Gregory. Don't know their first names or party affiliations but I could probably locate them somewhere if there's interest in this page. Newyorkbrad 01:09, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Clarification
It'd be wonderful if someone could figure out what the party designations mean, i.e. does the Republican clerk only read legislation or motions/amendments introduced by Republicans and vice versa for the Democratic clerk? --WoohookittyWoohoo! 22:26, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

I have found absolutely no references to the party designations either online or offline. We need to cite references here or remove the party designations. -spektre 9:18 am CST, 4-27-2007

Sources for the full Reading Clerk List
I don't doubt the authenticity of the list of reading clerks, as from what I have seen, it is fairly accurate, but I'm unable to find the exact years prior to the early 1900s, and struggle to find any sources giving a comprehensive list of reading clerks. Would anyone know where we can confirm or get a source for the lists? DougDommadome (talk) 21:02, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
