The author introduces students to the intricacies of Congress and provides the tools to assess the relative successes and limitations of the institution. This dramatically updated revision incorporates a wealth of new cases and examples to illustrate the changes occurring in congressional process. Two entirely new case study chapters—on the 2013 government shutdown and the 2015 reauthorization of the Patriot Act—highlight Sinclair’s fresh analysis and the book is now introduced by a new foreword from noted scholar and teacher, Bruce I. Oppenheimer, reflecting on this book and Barbara Sinclair’s significant mark on the study of Congress.

While much of the attention of policymakers has been focused on taking short-term steps to address the immediate nature of the crisis, these events have served to strikingly demonstrate that the current U.S. financial regulatory system is in need of significant reform. This report: (1) describes the origins of the current financial regulatory system; (2) describes various market developments and changes that have created challenges for the current system; and (3) presents an evaluation framework that can be used to shape potential regulatory reform efforts. An important and thorough review of the issues related to regulatory reform. Charts and tables.
