After the Revolution: A Citizen's Guide to the First Republican Congress in 40 Years - Softcover
On November 8, 1994, a tidal wave of voter discontent washed over Washington, D.C. The result? Election of the first Republican majority Congress in 40 years.
Who are the key players in the new Congressional leadership? How will their bold agenda affect you? Will the Republicans keep the promises contained in their "Contract with America"? What sort of tax cut can you expect from the new Congress in 1995? Is health-care reform completely dead? Will welfare finally become workfare? Will Congress actually impose term limits on itself?
Written by political experts, After the Revolution answers these questions and more with:
· The Republican Contract—word for word, plus detailed analysis
· A Checklist of issues to watch—including crime, taxes, a balanced budget, term limits, and welfare reform
· The media revolution—how the rise of talk radio and electronic networks have diminished the influence of traditional media
· The Republican House & Senate—pictures and profiles of the new leaders
· Keeping score and talking back—how to contact the new Congress; a citizen's scorecard; list of key phone numbers, fax numbers, and electronic mail addresses
· The complete Congress—a state-by-state list of members
With After the Revolution you can finally take charge of your government, keep track of Congressional promises, and hold your representative's feet to the fires!
