Praise for True Representation:

“Rather than throw up his hands in despair over gridlock and extreme partisan politics in Washington, Ted Wachtel offers a solution that can save our democracy by highlighting a time-tested method that is as simple as it is sensible. Very thoughtful and persuasive.”

– Phil Goldsmith, former CEO of the School District of Philadelphia and former Deputy Mayor and City Manager of Philadelphia
