- W55978053 abstract "The primary research question examined in this paper is whether the policy priorities of African-American members of Congress who were elected from majority-minority districts between 1980-2008 have different policy objectives than African-Americans who were elected in the same time period from districts where minorities are not in the majority. Do those members of Congress from districts where African-Americans are not a majority still choose to take a leadership role on policies that prior literature has shown to be important to the African-American community, such as affirmative action and economic issues like the minimum wage? Do they request committee assignments that give them the ability to introduce bills that forward policy according to their district's constituency? By examining bill sponsorship patterns in Congress, bills introduced on the floor, and the types of committees that members of Congress from majority-minority districts are, assigned to, I will examine whether the policies that take priority with African-American members of Congress from majority-minority districts are distinct from those African-Americans who represent districts where African-Americans are not the majority." @default.
