July/August Cover

 

Strong Staff, Strong Institutions

Custodians of American Democracy
The strength of the legislature often lies behind the scenes with the sometimes unnoticed but hard-working staff. As one anonymous staffer puts it, "we are the hidden engine that make the legislature work." NCSL conducted a national survey of legislative staff to find out who they are, what they do and how they perceive the legislative process.

Legislative staff may not always get the respect they deserve, but in Ohio, the institution would grind to a halt without them.

Read both articles in the latest issue of State Legislatures magazine.
