Had been excluded by Legislature for two years Nancy Montgomery, who represents Philipstown and part of Putnam Valley on the Putnam County Legislature, has been named as the chair of one of its committees for the first time since she was elected in 2019. Montgomery, the only Democrat on the nine-member Legislature, had been shut out of committee assignments for the past two years by the Republican chairs. In 2024 and 2025, she served only on the Budget and Finance Committee, which includes every member. This year, Dan Birmingham, who was elected chair on a 5-4 vote with Montgomery's support, assigned her to chair the Health, Social, Educational & Environmental Committee and appointed her to Protective Services. Over the years, Montgomery had repeatedly requested to be part of both committees based on her experience managing group homes for the developmentally disabled, volunteering for the Philipstown Ambulance Corps and dispatching 911 calls. Other than Budget and Finance, the Legislature's committees each have three members. They meet monthly and consider whether resolutions will be sent to the full Legislature. "I'm grateful for the opportunity to serve on both the Health and Protective Services committees," Montgomery said in a statement on Wednesday (Jan. 14). "These committees sit at the heart of how we protect public safety, support vulnerable residents and allocate resources responsibly, especially at a time when federal decisions are creating uncertainty for local governments and communities. "A key priority for me is strengthening policies and funding that support effective collaboration between law enforcement and social services, particularly around mental health and crisis response. I'm looking forward to doing the work, asking hard questions and helping ensure that Putnam County remains prepared, compassionate and fiscally responsible."

When asked by The Current for an explanation, she would only say that she was "using my best judgment" in making assignments. In January 2024, Paul Jonke, then the new chair, excluded Montgomery for the first time. He claimed in a letter that her "inability to work collaboratively, and to act professionally and collegially," and the fact that she had "disturbed meetings" and violated the rules of order justified his decision. He also cited her criticism of Republican legislators for making decisions in secret caucus meetings, "even after you have been provided with conclusive authority that such discussions are entirely proper, ethical and protected by state law."

Beginning with his devastating combat injury and long recovery, the series follows Dole through his early political career in Kansas, his elections to Congress and the U.S. Senate, his tenure as Republican National Committee Chairman, and his emergence as a central figure in Washington during some of the most turbulent decades in modern history.Listeners will travel with Dole through the Nixon years and Watergate, the razor-thin 1974 Senate race against Dr. Bill Roy, and his rise onto the national stage as Gerald Ford's 1976 vice-presidential running mate. The season continues through his 1980 and 1988 presidential campaigns, his pivotal role as Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, and his leadership in landmark moments such as saving Social Security in 1983 and launching the historic McGovern–Dole effort to feed hungry children around the world.As both Senate Minority Leader and Majority Leader, Bob Dole became one of the great legislative strategists of his era, and this series reveals how power was actually wielded in Congress from the 1970s through the 1990s—how deals were made, how coalitions were built, and how policy became law.Featuring voices of friends and foes alike—fellow senators, staffers, journalists, and contemporaries—along with rare archival audio from news coverage and C-SPAN, this season offers an intimate, inside-the-room portrait of a man who helped shape a generation of American politics.More than a biography, Bob Dole: The Life That Brought Him There is a master class in leadership, resilience, and the inner workings of the United States Senate at a time when history was being written day by day.Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Send us a textIn this episode, we look back with a great deal of respect to a very formidable adversary for most Republicans like me, in Senator George Mitchell of Maine. He was the Senate Majority Leader for most of the Bush Administration and the first two years of the Clinton Administration. He was most likely the single biggest factor in making George H. W. Bush eat his no new taxes pledge during the budget negotiations of 1990. He decided to retire in 1994. This dinner was held in his honor and to raise money for a scholarship fund that he set up with the remainder of his reelection campaign fund to help more people get an education. Mitchell was the son of an Irish immigrant janitor, and a textile worker in Maine. He knew the value of a good education and how hard his parents had worked for him to have the opportunities this nation provided. This dinner was his way of setting up a fund to help those coming up behind him. It was here that we also got a chance to see both Bob Dole and President Clinton give good hearted speeches in tribute to the outgoing Majority Leader. It is a chance to size them up as they go head to head, but this time, it is all in good natured fun and in honor of a highly respected colleague, all on the eve of the 1994 midterm elections.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

In this episode of ITR Live, Chris Hagenow and John Hendrickson cover a full roundup of Iowa political developments as fall elections approach. They open with a trivia challenge before diving into what's on the minds of voters, policymakers, and taxpayers across the state.The discussion highlights the upcoming release of the ITR Foundation poll, which will gauge the political environment, issue positions, and image ratings of Iowa leaders. Chris and John preview why this data matters—not just for campaigns, but for understanding whether Iowa taxpayers remain aligned with conservative policies like tax relief and limited government.They then turn to the recent leadership shake-up in the Iowa Senate, where Mike Klimesh was chosen as Majority Leader following Jack Whitver's retirement. The hosts emphasize the importance of leadership unity and how internal divisions—such as debates over carbon pipelines—could shape the caucus's effectiveness in delivering for taxpayers.The episode also explores the crowded race for Iowa's 2nd Congressional District, the impact of Representative Mike Sexton's resignation and upcoming special election, and how Democrats are attempting to leverage special election wins to claim momentum. Chris and John push back on overstated narratives, arguing that the real driver in these contests is organization and turnout.Finally, they address local elections and ballot issues, including bond referenda and troubling reports of candidates being left off ballots due to filing errors. They call for reforms to increase transparency, protect ballot access, and give taxpayers more time and information when local governments propose major spending projects. The conversation closes with a reflection on the legacy of ITR's founder, David Stanley, and his enduring focus on government spending as the central issue for taxpayers.

The topic of this episode is, “Was James Madison the first majority leader?”Both the Senate and the House of Representatives have a majority leader. At the time of the recording this podcast, Republican John Thune of South Dakota is the Senate majority leader, and Republican Steve Scalise of Louisiana is the House majority leader.Now, congressional scholars tend to argue that the majority leader emerged as a position in each chamber in 1899. Democrat Arthur B Gorman of Maryland was the first Senate majority leader, and Republican Sereno Elisha Payne of New York was the first House majority leader.My AEI colleague Jay Cost has a different view. He thinks the first majority leader appeared on Capitol Hill far earlier, and it was Virginia's James Madison. So, we're going to discuss that claim, which you can find in his recent piece, "Icons of Congress: James Madison — The First Majority Leader."So, we're going to discuss that claim.Dr. Jay Cost is the Gerald R. Ford nonresident senior fellow at AEI and the author of the superb book, James Madison: America's First Politician (2021), and other fine volumes on politics and history. Regular readers of UnderstandingCongress.org no doubt have seen Jay's various reports and essays, and if you have not seen them, do have a look.Click here to read the full transcript.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, nothing has changed in this election race, yet these news programs have election boards and experts telling you what they think will happen. Nobody knows what will happen – it's a close race. Just get out and vote, who cares what the polls say. Later, Kamala Harris gave a speech Tuesday night, and nobody cared except for the media. She spent the entire speech trashing Trump then says we should unite. Her supporters don't like her - they just hate Trump. This speech was a list of lies and she wants your vote. Also, Sen Ted Cruz calls in with an update on his very close race for Senate. Cruz is Sen Chuck Schumer's #1 target. The only way Schumer stays Majority Leader is to take out Cruz, then he can end the filibuster. Afterward, Derrick Anderson calls in to discuss his election run for Virginia's 07th Congressional District. The border crisis is making every state a border state and Virginia is feeling it. Anderson needs all the support he can get because he is moving forward with good policy, unlike the radical left who wants to do the opposite. Finally, Kari Lake calls in about her Senate run in Arizona. Arizonians deserve better and Lake is determined to make that happen, and she encourages everyone to vote early because it is critical to stop the radical left.
