Dauster* The right of United States Senators to debate without limit—and thus to filibuster—has characterized much of the Senate’s history. The Reid Pre- cedent, Majority Leader Harry Reid’s November 21, 2013, change to a sim- ple majority to confirm nominations—sometimes called the “nuclear option”—dramatically altered that right. This article considers the Senate’s right to debate, Senators’ increasing abuse of the filibuster, how Senator Reid executed his change, and possible expansions of the Reid Precedent.

  • The Southeast Arizona Land Exchange and Conservation Act of 2013
    The Southeast Arizona Land Exchange and Conservation Act of 2013 .H.R.687 – Introduced by Reps. Paul Gosar, Ann Kirkpatrick, Matt Salmon, David Schweikert, and Trent Franks .S.339 – Introduced by Senators John McCain and Jeff Flake Why do we need the Southeast Arizona Land Exchange and Conservation Act of 2013? • Creates thousands of high paying jobs. • Reduces U.S. dependence on foreign sources of energy and minerals. • Preserves Apache Leap. • Protects endangered species habitat, sensitive ecosystems, recreational sites, and historic landmarks in rural Arizona. • Generates billions of dollars of revenue for federal, state, and local governments. Overview of the Legislation • H.R.687 authorizes, directs, facilitates, and expedites the exchange of land between Resolution Copper, the U.S. Forest Service, and the Bureau of Land Management. – Legislation is required because the exchange involves three parties. • The exchange will bring into federal stewardship 5,344 acres of high-priority conservation lands in exchange for 2,422acres of national forest system land containing one of the largest undeveloped copper resources in the world. • H.R.687 and S.339 are nearly identical to the bill Rep. Gosar introduced and navigated to passage last Congress - the first time the exchange passed either body of Congress in its history. Resolution Copper will acquire the 2,422 acre “Oak Flat” parcel • This land is checker- boarded within Resolution Copper's lands. • Resolution Copper already has unpatented mining claims that cover about 75% of the parcel. • This conveyance is an important step to the development of the largest producing mine in North America. Economic Highlights • Over 3,000 construction jobs over a six to ten year period.

  • Is All Descriptive Representation Equal?: a Closer Look at Latino Representation in the U.S
    Is All Descriptive Representation Equal?: A Closer Look at Latino Representation in the U.S. House of Representatives Jennifer Garcia Graduate Student Department of Political Science University of California, Irvine [email protected] 1 Across the country, the ranks of Latinos are increasing in the Republican Party. The 2010 Midterm elections witnessed a record number of Latino Republicans elected to statewide and national office.1 Latino Republicans more than doubled in size in the U.S. House of Representatives, making up eight out of 27 Latino members in the 112th Congress. Yet, it is unknown whether their presence benefits Latinos. Although there is a general consensus among scholars that descriptive representation benefits racial and ethnic communities, it is also acknowledged that political parties significantly influence representation, at least for Blacks. Further, scholars have shown that political parties have become even more important in Congress. However, Blacks benefit from descriptive representation because Black representatives place racial and symbolic issues on the political agenda that are otherwise given little to no attention by non-Black representatives. This paper will take a closer look at the symbolic representation provided by Latino Republicans in the 112th Congress by examining bill sponsorship/co-sponsorship and floor speeches in the U.S. House of Representatives. A considerable amount of work has examined minority representation and its benefits. Some have emphasized the substantive benefits of descriptive representation by examining roll call votes, bills sponsorship/co-sponsorship, participation during committee hearings, and constituent services. Others have focused on the effect that descriptive representatives have on minority political behavior, showing that Latinos, like Blacks, are mobilized by co-ethnic candidates.2 Still others have focused on the symbolic benefits provided by descriptive representatives, finding that Black representatives provide the greatest amount of symbolic representation to Blacks (Tate 2003).
