This book explores why some members of Congress are more effective
than others at navigating the legislative process and what this
means for how Congress is organized and what policies it produces.
Craig Volden and Alan E. Wiseman develop a new metric of individual
legislator effectiveness (the Legislative Effectiveness Score) that
will be of interest to scholars, voters, and politicians alike.
They use these scores to study party influence in Congress, the
successes or failures of women and African Americans in Congress,
policy gridlock, and the specific strategies that lawmakers employ
to advance their agendas.
