The Correspondence series covers the period of 1978 to 1990 (1987 letters are lacking). The correspondence is arranged by year and then alphabetically. The letters are from Bullard's constituents and cover a range of topics from personal individual concerns, politics, general legislative matters, and constituent opposition or support of specific pieces of legislation.
The bulk of the collection consists of Legislative Files from the period when Bullard first entered the Legislature to the end of his last term in 1992. The files are of Bullard himself and some of his key staff, notably David Cahill, who was counsel to the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, and Brad Geller, who was Bullard's personal aide.
The files have been largely left in the order in which they were received. Thus there are materials relating to a specific legislative term and there are files related to topics about which there was considerable contention and which often carried over from one term to the next. These Legislative Files seemed to divide naturally into two subseries: Major Topics / Multiple Legislative Sessions and Miscellaneous legislation / Staff files.
"Major Topics / Multiple Legislative Sessions" consists of files pertaining to the major pieces of legislation supported by Bullard. These included legislation relating to the issues of plant relocation, the divestiture of state assets from companies doing business in South Africa or with its apartheid government, tort or liability reform, marijuana legalization, right-to-die legislation, among other topics.
The second legislative subseries relates to more various pieces of legislation, largely coming out of the House Judiciary Committee. These files have been maintained by legislative session and House or Senate Bill number. Some of the legislative files, those maintained by either David Cahill or Brad Geller, are arranged by date. These files are valuable in their documentation of the progress of a piece of legislation through the Legislature and the full House. Included are copies of the bill, drafts and other modifications, and memoranda to Bullard from staff discussing or offering criticism of a bill. The files also contain background information about the topic covered by the legislation.
