Collection of the U.S. House of Representatives, Gift of Glenn Rupp
Object Details
Established in 1919, the Little Congress was an association of secretaries and clerks in the House and Senate, intended to encourage a sense of community among staff who hailed from all over the country. This membership card dates from the mid-1930s, by which time the organization had changed from a convivial group created to provide public speaking opportunities to a highly-charged political organization.
