James Walter Moore, electrical engineer, data systems consultant and an unsuccessful 2006 Democratic candidate for the 3rd Congressional District (who lost to John Yarmuth), discusses insights gained from that race in his 2023 book, Exile on K Street. His experience taught him a lot about why the current political system is not working to give constituents the politicians who actually represent them. And he points out what can be done to make it easier for citizens to get the information they need to make informed choices at the polls and to bring the polls to them instead of having to find the polls and oftentimes stand in long lines in order to vote.

Congressman John Yarmuth has served as Chairman of the House Budget Committee since 2019, and was one of the key architects of the $1.9 American Rescue Plan that is lifting 5 million American children out of poverty, saving millions from losing their homes, and saving lives every day by getting people vaccines. He's also the hidden force behind trying to wrangle Democrats together on Build Back Better. In this fascinating interview before his retirement from Congress next year, Chairman Yarmuth shares what it was like trying to herd cats between moderates and progressives in the negotiations over the Build Back Better bill, what Mitch McConnell is really like, and what the unseen physical demands of being a member of Congress are.
