State legislators' knowledge and perceptions of medical savings accounts and the U.S. health care system : identifying future compromises to health care reformBonetto, Michael J. 30 September 2005 (has links)
As researchers, policymakers and employers begin focusing
on consumer driven health plan models and medical savings
accounts (MSAs), a better understanding of the political
viability of such reform initiatives is necessary. The
purpose of this study was to survey state legislators'
knowledge and perceptions of medical savings accounts
(MSAs) and the U.S. health care system in order to identify
potential future compromises to health care reform. In
February 2004, 201 state legislators from nine states
(Alaska, Arizona, Florida, Hawaii, Iowa, Maryland,
Massachusetts, Minnesota and Washington) participated in an
on-line survey. The findings from this study revealed
significant differences between Republican and Democratic
state legislators in their attitudes towards MSAs, level of
satisfaction of the U.S. health care system, and overall
perceptions of the current and future health care systems.
Republican state legislators were 24 times more likely to
support MSAs than Democrats. Results also indicated the
following three areas had possible bipartisan support for
future initiatives: making individuals aware of the actual
costs of health care services, providing equitable access
to health care services for all individuals, and providing
equal tax treatment for those individuals without employer-sponsored
health insurance. / Graduation date: 2006

Criteria for majority party leadership selection in the United States House of Representatives : evidence of institutionalization in the collegial style, 1962-1976Walker, Rowena Lewis 01 January 1978 (has links)
This paper will explore further the process of selection of majority party leaders in the United States House of Representatives. It will seek to show that there were certain common denominators that existed among those who were selected for leadership positions between 1962 and 1976, and that these common denominators were not present in those individuals who challenged the leaders and lost. Additionally, it will be argued that those certain qualities were particularly important to the style of leadership during that period, and that their importance to that style allowed the development of an institutionalization of the selection process during that period.

Henry S. Lane and the birth of the Indiana Republican Party, 1854-1861Zachary, Lauren E. January 2013 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / Although the main emphasis of this study is Lane and his part in the Republican Party, another important part to this thesis is the examination of Indiana and national politics in the 1850s. This thesis studies the development of the Hoosier Republican Party and the obstacles the young organization experienced as it transformed into a major political party. Party leaders generally focused on states like New York and Pennsylvania in national elections but Indiana became increasingly significant leading up to the 1860 election. Though Hoosier names like George Julian and Schuyler Colfax might be more recognizable nationally for their role in the Republican Party, this thesis argues that Lane played a guiding role in the development of the new third party in Indiana. Through the study of primary sources, it is clear that Hoosiers turned to Lane to lead the organization of the Republican Party and to lead it to its success in elections. Historians have long acknowledged Lane’s involvement in the 1860 Republican National Convention but fail to fully realize his significance in Indiana throughout the 1850s. This thesis argues that Lane was a vital leader in Hoosier politics and helped transform the Republican Party in Indiana from a grassroots movement into a powerful political party by 1860.
