Dialogue on the Turn to the Right

Tuesday, 16 Feb 1982 at 8:00 pm – Benton Auditorium, Scheman Building, ISU Center

Lynn Cutler, the first woman elected to the Black Hawk County Board of Supervisors, has served in that capacity since 1974. As the Democratic candidate for the Third Congressional District in 1980, she lost by two percentage points in that conservative district. Active in civil rights and feminist groups, she is currently one of three vice-chairs of the National Democratic Party and recently announced her candidacy for the Third Congressional District seat in 1982.

As the twenty-nine year old Chairman and co-founder of the National Conservative Political Action Committee (NCPAC), Terry Dolan spearheaded that group's successful effort which helped to unseat five of six targeted liberal senators while raising millions of dollars to aid the candidacy of various conservative candidates in the 1982 elections. He is also the Director of Conservatives Against Liberal Legislation and aboard member on the Committee for Responsible Youth Politics, the Conservative National Committee and Americans for Nuclear Energy.
