Henry Cuellar. Jared Polis. Filemon Vela Texas U. Eddie Bernice Johnson. And what do you wish you could have accomplished but didn't? RR : I'll answer that second one first. I've wanted budget process reform.
When you look at the budget process, it's not just that process, but also the appropriations process, the spending. That entire process has been dysfunctional for three decades or longer.
And over the course of my six years, I was able to convince my colleagues that my plan for budget process reform were the correct ones. Thirty-five percent of the Democrats in the House of Representatives co-sponsored my legislation , 77 percent of the Republicans and 55 percent of the entire chamber.
And it was unable to be moved out of committee because the committee chairman wanted to do his own thing, and then didn't do it. That's profoundly frustrating and it's systemic around here. That's the one big regret because tomorrow I'm going to be voting on a continuing resolution, which continues to propagate this broken system, whereby if they had just passed my legislation a year ago, we wouldn't likely be in this place today. Instead, they're going to say we're going to do it next year when they know we're not going to.
So that's frustrating. As far as accomplishments go, most of the big accomplishments that I take most pride in dealt with specific things that happened in Wisconsin. I would highlight the effort I've had on a project I call "Save the Bay. And this was all done voluntarily by using what I call the power to convene. I did notice that as a member of Congress, one power you have, and it may be the only power you actually have, is to convene meetings when you're back home.
If I called the meeting, people would come. When I started talking about water quality, improving water quality and the environment, this struck a chord with Republicans and Democrats, it struck a chord with business leaders as well as environmentalists. And what we found is a lot of common ground and everybody wanted it better. And now we've got over people every month working on this project, they're doing it on their own with help from my office, and I would say that of everything you do around here, that's the biggest single success story I have.
And then, the second thing I would say related to the adoption fiasco the United States had with the Democratic Republic of Congo, which caught up seven families in Wisconsin — a couple in northeast Wisconsin in my district — where they had adopted children for up to three and a half years, but those children were not being released by the DRC, by their government. I took a trip to Africa last February. Not only were there Wisconsin kids brought home, all of those children got home and that was after three years.
Was that a big global thing that you were really excited about? Well, it is in a way that it was life changing for those children and for the American parents who were able to give them a better life. Do you guys talk frequently? RR: Well, no, we don't talk frequently. But he was out here a couple weeks ago for his orientation, and my advice centered around the idea that you've got to be willing to always keep the citizens of northeast Wisconsin at the forefront of your thoughts. That every single vote you take must be with them in mind because your core foundational representative republic principles are you're to be their mouthpiece here in Washington, D.
That means quite frankly that there are going to be times, many times, that you will be at odds with the leadership, in my case with the Republican leadership, of the House and Senate.
There are times that your district's not going to be in sync with them, and so, my advice to you is don't trade for things, don't compromise things. You might not advance through the ranks of your committees as fast as others because of it, but you will be greatly rewarded by the citizens in Wisconsin and your own personal integrity will never be at risk. And that was the advice I gave him.
MB: You mentioned that you don't want to sacrifice personal integrity as advice to Mike Gallagher. How do you keep that in check when you're in Washington? RR: Well, yeah, it's a difficult thing to do because this type of work requires a certain amount of ego and belief in yourself that you're capable of doing this job.
And I think the fastest way to not let that happen is to keep your wits about you every time somebody wants to call you by titles, or people falling all over you when they come here. That's just how it is, everybody defers to the congressman. Everybody wants to make you feel important.
And I've always felt that I'm not that important, that the important people are the , people who send me here to speak for them.
