The Administrative Files series consists of organizational records which document the activities of the Board of Directors. These include founding documents, by-laws and changes, annual reports to the national organization, monthly meeting minutes, and event programs from annual chapter meetings. Budgets, treasurer reports and event calendars are mainly interfiled with meeting minutes, as is some correspondence. There are gaps in some months and years. Files labeled "Other" contain a mixture of items, including correspondence, budgets, pamphlets, Voters Guides, annual program calendar flyers and study reports.

This series includes information on the Committee for Progressive Legislation's first administrative year, including the proposal for organization within the First Unitarian Universalist Society of Albany. The series contains organizational bulletins beginning in 1969. The bulletins contain information for members and other interested parties in relation to lobbying events and meetings. Their newsletter bulletins inform their followers of what issues they were currently working on as well as what their direction for the following month would be. This series also contains several membership lists, photographs of group members at events, as well as financial records. Unfortunately the financial documents are very scarce, however they do reveal administrative personnel problems. Also in this series is a sparse but informative file of the group's meeting minutes. The minutes reveal the anticipated future of the organization over the years. Much of the correspondence between Committee for Progressive Legislature members consists of offering solutions to the various organizational disagreements and problems. The decisions reached by Chairperson Kay Dingle are documented, along with other membership information, in the organization's newsletters.

Constitutions in this series contain information on the process of the union's affiliation with CWA beginning in the mid-1980s.
