Roundtables on Congress at APSA

- September 1, 2010

Loyal (and not so loyal) readers of the Monkey Cage might be interested in two roundtables on Congress sponsored this week by the Legislative Studies Section at the APSA annual meeting in D.C.. Roundtables typically consist of opening statements from the participants, moderated discussion with the panelists, and then an open audience Q/A. The more the merrier, so I hope to see you there. (You know, if we had Monkey Cage t-shirts— or aprons– we’d be easier to spot in a crowd.)
