<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The vocabulary of state legislatures describing processes, structure, rules, and participants foundational to understanding and participating in state lawmaking and lobbying.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>325 key legislative concepts with 206 sub-definitions provide the common legislative ideas that underlie different words used by various states that describe the same thing. Once you understand organic concepts, you can proceed to master the permutations of vocabulary and speak the language of any legislature. Understanding legislative concepts and language expressing them is central to succeeding in the capitol, effectively navigating its rules and processes, and influencing the lawmaking process. </p><p><em>Insiders Talk: Glossary of Legislative Concepts and Representative Terms </em>(Manual 2) sets the stage for <em>How to Successfully Lobby State Legislatures </em>(Manual 3), our first handbook for skills development, campaign planning, and tactical implementation.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>As a policy expert with three decades of political experience, one of the main obstacles I confront is deciphering 50 state capitols' semantic subcultures... political professionals must understand and master the nuances of language, both the unique and the universal. Fortunately, Robert L. Guyer gives us the <em>Rosetta Stone</em> for navigating legislatures... It's a one-stop resource for commanding the jargon that steers the process. Bradley Kile, Ph.D., Florida State University, Tallahassee</p><p> </p><p>After 25 years in legislative work - 13 as legislative staff and 12 as a professional lobbyist... I know first hand that lawmakers, staff, and the lobbying corps respect those who speak the capitol's language and dismiss as amateurs those who don't... As with all jargon these terms are shorthand for complicated processes, but once you get the terminology straight, you'll find yourself in a much stronger position to work the system. Pat Cadle, Charleston, West Virginia</p><p> </p><br>
