Item description from seller

viii, [2], 308, [2] pages. Illustrations. Selected Sources. List of Organizations. Index. Some underlining noted. Inscribed by Debbie on the half-title page. Deborah Wasserman Schultz (born September 27, 1966) is an American politician serving as the U.S. Representative for Florida's 23rd congressional district, first elected to Congress in 2004. She is a member of the Democratic Party and a former Chairwoman for the Democratic National Committee. Wasserman Schultz was a national campaign co-chair for Hillary Clinton's unsuccessful 2008 run for president. She is the first Jewish representative elected from Florida. Wasserman Schultz was elected chairperson of the Democratic National Committee in May 2011, replacing Virginia Senator Tim Kaine. Derived from a Kirkus review: Democratic National Committee chair Schultz assembles a party platform and memoir organized around improving the lives of America's children. A frankly partisan political treatment anticipating the upcoming midterm elections, the author's detailed discussion of the issues chronicles the effects of legislative obstructionism. She reviews the major planks in the Democratic Party's platform, from reform of the financial system to global defense issues and health care, but she also examines social security, Medicare and Medicaid. She takes up particular legislative initiatives dealing with children, women and the family. Schultz is active in the fight against hunger in the United States, and she sponsored the PROTECT Our Children Act of 2008, which aimed the largest law enforcement effort ever against sexual predators and child pornographers and mandated different agencies to cooperate. She also fought for the renewal of the Violence Against Women Act. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated].
