Congressional Procedures and the Policy Process
About this book
"The book does an outstanding job in covering all the necessary details on congressional rules and procedures, most of which are not easy to understand. [...] It has been and will remain to be a must-read for all the congressional politics students and Washington insiders."
– Hong Min Park, University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee
Congressional Procedures and the Policy Process examines the entire arc of the legislative process—from a bill's introduction, to its signature into law, to congressional review of the law's administrative implementation—and the many procedural pitfalls that exist along the way. Author Walter J. Oleszek and co-authors Mark Oleszek, Elizabeth Rybicki, and Bill Heniff, Jr. do not shy away from the complexity of the topic, yet they ensure that the operations of Congress are understandable to students and practitioners alike. Through an array of interesting examples, case studies, and the authors' personal anecdotes, this definitive work delivers timely explanation and analysis of the nation's premier lawmaking institution.
