Martin Olav Sabo was born in Crosby, North Dakota in 1938, the son of Norwegian immigrants. He came to Minnesota in 1955 to attend Augsburg College, Minneapolis, where he first became active in the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Club. Sabo, of Minneapolis, was elected to the Minnesota House of Representatives in 1960, only a year after graduating from Augsburg, and represented the 31st Legislative District and later (after redistricting) Districts 42 and (still later) 57B. During his early years in the Legislature (1965-1973) he apparently also worked as a salesman for the Aetna Life Insurance Company.

Sabo served as Democratic-Farmer-Labor Minority Leader in the House for the 1969 and 1971 sessions, and was Speaker of the House from 1973 to 1978. He also served on the following committees: Taxation, Education, Metropolitan and Urban Affairs, Elections and Reapportionment, and Health and Welfare.

Sabo was elected Fifth District Representative to the United States Congress in 1978. In Congress he served on the House Appropriations, Democratic Steering and Policy, and Budget committees, and he was chair of the House Budget Committee for the 103rd Congress (1993-1994).

Sabo's subcommittee assignments while serving on the House Appropriations Committee included Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and Independent Agencies, Transportation, the District of Columbia, Homeland Security, Defense, and others.

Sabo was instrumental in getting funds to Minnesota for many projects, including the Hiawatha light rail line.

Sabo and his wife Sylvia had two daughters, Karin and Julie.

Martin Sabo died March 13, 2016 in Minneapolis, at the age of 78.

Appropriations:

There are two sets of records, appropriations books and appropriations files. Each set is filed in chronological order and then by committee. Committees include Education, Health and Human Services, Criminal Justice, Foreign Operations, VA HUD and Independent Agencies, Treasury, Postal, and various others. Researchers should use both sets.

Appropriations books (101st-109th Congress) were originally kept in three-ring binders by Congressional Session, and were possibly a master reference copy used by Sabo's staff. These books include appropriation request letters, appropriation summaries, appropriation request forms, printed email correspondence, congressional record inserts regarding appropriations, and cosponsor letters.

The appropriations files (Fiscal Year 1995-FY 1997, FY 2001-FY 2007) were files likely kept by legislative assistants Margaret Prinzing, Travis Talvitie, and Olin Moore. These include request letters, congressional record inserts, correspondence from constituents and/or individuals representing organizations requesting funds, printed emails, and summaries. Cosponsorship and delegation letters are included in files for the 104th and 105th Congresses.

Information about appropriations can also be found within the legislative assistant files under the corresponding topics. For example, transportation appropriations can be found in the legislative assistant files regarding transportation, environmental appropriations with the environment files.
