Oleszek Senior Specialist in the Legislative Process Government and Finance Division Congressional Research Service ˜ The Library of Congress The Role of the House Majority Leader: An Overview Summary The majority leader in the contemporary House is second-in-command behind the Speaker of the majority party. Typically, the majority leader functions as the Speaker’s chief lieutenant or “field commander” for day-to-day management of the floor. Although the majority leader’s duties are not especially well-defined, they have evolved to the point where it is possible to spotlight two fundamental and often interlocking responsibilities that orient the majority leader’s work: institutional and party. From an institutional perspective, the majority leader has a number of duties. Scheduling floor business is a prime responsibility of the majority leader. Although scheduling the House’s business is a collective activity of the majority party, the majority leader has a large say in shaping the chamber’s overall agenda and in determining when, whether, how, or in what order legislation is taken up. In addition, the majority leader is active in constructing winning coalitions for the party’s legislative priorities; acting as a public spokesman — defending and explaining the party’s program and agenda; serving as an emissary to the White House, especially when the President is of the same party; and facilitating the orderly conduct of the House’s business. From a party perspective, three key activities undergird the majority leader’s principal goal of trying to ensure that the party remains in control of the House.

  • Jeffersons Rivals: the Shifting Character of the Federalists 23

    Jeffersons Rivals: the Shifting Character of the Federalists 23

    jeffersons rivals: the shifting character of the federalists roberf mccolley Our first national political association, after the revolutionary patriots, was the Federalist Party, which controlled the Federal government for twelve years, and then dwindled rapidly away. Within its brief career this Federalist Party managed to go through three quite distinct phases, each of which revealed a different composition of members and of principles. While these are visible enough in the detailed histories of the early na­ tional period, they have not been clearly marked in our textbooks. An appreciation of the distinctness of each phase should reduce some of the confusion about what the party stood for in the 1790's, where Jeffersonians have succeeded in attaching to it the reactionary social philosophy of Hamilton. Furthermore, an identification of the leading traits of Feder­ alism in each of its three phases will clarify the corresponding traits in the opposition to Federalism. i. federalism as nationalism, 1785-1789 The dating of this phase is arbitrary, but defensible. Programs for strengthening the Articles of Confederation were a favorite subject of political men before Yorktown. In 1785 a national movement began to form. Several delegates met in that year at Mount Vernon to negotiate commercial and territorial conflicts between Virginia and Maryland. In­ formally but seriously they also discussed the problem of strengthening the national government. These men joined with nationally minded lead­ ers from other states to bring on the concerted movement for a new Constitution.1 The interesting questions raised by Charles Beard about the motives of these Federalists have partly obscured their leading concerns, and the scholarship of Merrill Jensen has perhaps clarified the matter less than it should have.

    Artemas Ward and the Politics of the New Nation

    ARTEMAS WARD AND THE POLITICS OF THE NEW NATION By MARION RAY McCULLAR /I / Bachelor of Arts Central State University Edmond, Oklahoma 1967 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS July, 1972 WI\U\ffl11W1 " IMTI UfflVERfll] 'tRRARY FEB 6 1973 ARTEMAS WARD AND THE POLITICS OF THE NEW NATION Thesis Approved: ii PREFACE The po1;i.tics of the young republic were marked by the fear of an all powerful government on the one han~ and by anxieties that govern­ ment might have insufficient power on the other. This ambivalence not only divided Congress but created inner tensions within the members themselves as to how to achieve a proper balance. The national politi­ cal career of Artemas Ward provides a particularly illuminating example of that tension. After a long career in provincial politics, Ward moved into the national political circle at a time when greater powers for the Congress were deemed by many as essential to the further prosecution of the Revolution. An ardent patriot, Ward was also fiercely devoted to the preservation of a social order in Massachusetts which he believed would be destroyed by either over-centralization or public licentiousness. The resolution of the conflict between these two extremes in the political career of Artemas Ward elucidates one important facet of the politics of the new nation. I owe a special debt of gratitude to my advisor, Professor H. James Henderson, who generously gave of his time and knowledge to help me in every stage of research and writing of this thesis.
