Norris Leads Rural Electrification and REA Charter

The 1935 relief funds for rural electrification came largely from Norris after exchanges with REA Administrator Mortis Cooke. He pushed for a formal government program, shepherded the Norris Rayburn bill through the Senate, and formed the basic REA charter. His notable achievements include the TVA, the Lame Duck Amendment, the Anti-Injunction Law in labor disputes, and Nebraska’s unicameral legislature. A Liberty Ship named George W Norris is set to launch in December from a Georgia yard, measuring 411 feet in length with a 57 foot beam and 10,800 deadweight tons.
