Sounds interesting to "see behind the curtain", as it were.

Is this work going to be published as a formal book, a series of (summary or detailed level) Substack essays, or ???

While we understand that most of your research was conducted in confidence or at least without formal attribution, I hope you obtained a few on-the-record endorsement comments from some of the applicable members of Congressional officialdom to help us believe your findings might really end up being implemented.

Sometimes when a congress critter gives a public speech, or one from the floor, or expounds during a committee hearing, he/she can look very well informed and accomplished, while perhaps not giving as much credit to his/her staff support as might be justified.

Now for your next project, you should consider a TV show along the lines of The West Wing, except dealing with the ins and outs of congressional staff romances, alliances, disagreements, etc. And cast yourself in a starring role!! :-)

You are doing a good job Sheril. 😊😊. That's how a Democracy should work. Voice of Unelected representatives should also be taken in account as they are still part of Democracy, next to the 'Opposition' elected representatives! May be they both, Ruling Party and Opposition representatives give it a thought too?🤔😊👍
