This paper measures the party incumbency advantage for the Democratic Party in state legislatures nationwide.

This dissertation seeks to explain variation in legislative strategies to control policymaking across institutional contexts. Of these many strategies, I focus particularly on the use of statutory language meant to direct agency action and on the use of oversight hearings.
