GOVT 215
Spring 2018 not offered
|
This course is an introduction to the politics of congressional policy making--how the way we elect our members of Congress affects the way they perform in Congress. We will focus our attention on changes in the legislative process over the past several decades and how these changes have influenced the relations between members and their constituents, between the two parties, between the House and Senate, and between Congress and the president. |
