Dodd served on the Foreign Relations Committee, co-chairing its Internal Security Subcommittee; the Judiciary Committee, chairing its Juvenile Delinquency Subcommittee; and the Aeronautical and Space Sciences Committee. He championed the overhaul of the nation’s gun control legislation even before the assassination of President Kennedy. Dodd ardently supported the civil rights legislation of Presidents Kennedy and Johnson, particularly anti-lynching and voting rights laws. He also strove to protect children through such measures as curbing violence on television and stemming the traffic of illegal drugs. ...
He appears absent from the subcommittee's famous inquest on comic books and their relation to juvenile delinquency.
EDIT: Weirdness detected. As soon as I posted that, someone mentioned the current senator Dodd from CT on the internet radio stream.
