The fifteenth edition will account for the 2014 midterm elections and will include discussion of the agenda of the new Congress, White HouseCapitol Hill relations, party and committee leadership changes, judicial appointments, and partisan polarization, as well as covering changes to budgeting, campaign finance, lobbying, public attitudes about Congress, reapportionment, rules, and procedures.
