Description

Speaking Freely yanks readers from their living room couch and drops them into the plush offices of Washington insiders for frank, one-on-one conversations about the role of money in politics. Twenty-four power brokers – current and former members of Congress, lobbyists, PAC directors and big-money donors – answer the questions that are usually evaded when the cameras are rolling and reporters’ notebooks are open.

The result is a set of brutally honest assessments about everything from what it’s like for a member of Congress to ask special interests for money, to what the donors really hope for in return for their investment. Those interviewed included former Reps. Sam Gejdenson (D-Conn.) and Rick Lazio (R-NY) and former Sens. Slade Gorton (R-Wash.) and Chuck Robb (D-Va.), as well as some of the biggest donors and most powerful lobbyists in the land.
