David Obey has in his nearly forty years in the U.S. House of
Representatives worked to bring economic and social justice to
America's working families. In 2007 he assumed the chair of the
Appropriations Committee and is positioned to pursue his priority
concerns for affordable health care, education, environmental
protection, and a foreign policy consistent with American
democratic ideals.
Here, in his autobiography, Obey looks back on his journey in
politics beginning with his early years in the Wisconsin
Legislature, when Wisconsin moved through eras of shifting balance
between Republicans and Democrats. On a national level Obey traces,
as few others have done, the dramatic changes in the workings of
the U.S. Congress since his first election to the House in 1969. He
discusses his own central role in the evolution of Congress and
ethics reforms and his view of the recent Bush presidency--crucial
chapters in our democracy, of interest to all who observe politics
and modern U.S. history.
