"The Lawgivers' Struggle explains how the U.S. Congress exercises its constitutional authorities to formulate and shape American national security policy, sometimes in support of administration priorities and sometimes in opposition to them. Drawing on the author's experiences as a congressional staffer working for the House Armed Services Committee, it describes the processes that Congress uses and the tools it has as its disposal to wield influence in national security decisions. The book illuminates the legislative process, explaining the "how" and "why" of congressional decision making.
